    October 12, 2012 - Popped and poured on advice at the recorking clinic. We must have been lucky with this bottle. Really very impressive. Leather, roses, aniseed, beef stock sitting over plummy undertones. Still with so much structure yet refined and subtle; tannins actually get a little more assertive with air. Builds past the finish with depth with red fruits and cloves, charry and smoky. Surprisingly didn't tire over three hours. Wonderful experience that makes you understand the greatness of icons even in a lesser vintage. Fabulous gift from my partner for my birthday.
