Nice and complex, after 1 hour of decant. As per last note. Similar characters of a lightly earthy/oaked wine with dense and dark fruit. Coffee, blackberry, smoke all rapped up into a nice long finish. I will be looking for latest vintage to try, as likely can't get this anymore. Will last for a few years i think.
