March 25, 2019 - 1995 Bordeaux (Beautiful Solvang, CA): Slow-ox'ed for four hours then decanted for three. I can't say this wine budged much. The nose was enticing, a complex mélange of floral, earthy and black fruit notes. Medium bodied and drinking in fine balance, but not a very generous showing. Eventually, some black cherry notes emerged along with a dominant green aspect (tomato vines?) and some tobacco. Very firm tannins. Honestly, this needed a 24-hour decant (or at least a decade more, or both).
