  Unfortunately I didn’t read my previous notes and just did a short double decant.
  
  The wine is too tannic and too acidic. Very good mid palate and finish.
  
  I which I had done a longer decant.

  Opened for 3 hours in the fridge and let warm up for 15-20 min prior consumption.
  
  The wine is still tannic, dark fruits, fairly complex but I think it eaither needed a REAL decant of around 1 hour or a few more years in the cellar.
  
  I liked better the 2008 sibling.

  Old world bouquet, musky with notes of cassis and pencil lead. Well integrated in the mouth, smooth finish, but a tad short.

  Much smoother on opening than a bottle opened almost exactly a year ago. Shows less structure than the '06, but equally lovely dark SLD fruit.

  Tight and very tannic on opening. This benefited immensely from 3 hrs of air, becoming a smooth example of tasty SLD cab.
