  Thick, dark ox-blood in color
  Black and red currents, loads of cedar and vanilla, and baking spices. Powerful nose.
  Thick and furious. Tastes like the nose. Longish finish. Ends with strong cedar notes. This wine still has loads of life left. It's a real powerhouse. Pair accordingly. This was the best bottle yet of this vintage. Almost 95 pts. One more bottle to go.
  
  Did Italian takeout. veal shank, gnocchi etc.

  黑醋栗、黑莓，甘草、巧克力、皮革和烟草的香气，非常标志性的成熟赤霞珠气息。成熟、浓郁、丰满，在厚重的单宁中透出丝丝酸度，让酒没有落入无聊的沉重之中。后续发展和回味中略有一丝矿物的清凉感，将风格又向传统拉回了少许。

  Shorter decant and consumption time for my last bottle of this vintage.
  
  Ox blood in color, full bodied.
  
  Light oak, baking spice, leather, pencil lead. Sweet jammy notes.
  Bold, but smooth. Integrated tannin. Tons of spice. Black tea. AMAZING!!!! This bottle seems to be getting even better. EXCELLENT wine. Sophisticated. Punches above its weight class. Case worthy.
