Slightly better than a year ago. Showing light woody and red berry notes in the background. Still, shy and succinct after audozing for four hours and two in the glass. I love elegant wines, but let's not confuse elegance with silence. There are many bottles that develop positively with time in the cellar, this is not one of them.

I truly don't understand a rating of 95 points. I'm being generous with 88. This is muted, a bit diluted and frankly very simple. Now, it isn't unpleasant but it's kind of a Tuesday night wine. Finish is brief.
