Beautiful bottle, mature but vigorous, great color. With just 30 minutes of air, this blossoms from a relatively thin, dried out profile into a full blown savory mineral bomb. Very much like Chateau Bel Air Marquis d'Aligre, which I have been drinking recently - pipe tobacco, firm and fresh age-sweetened red fruit, crisp mineral edge. Classic!
