August 17, 2019 - 92+to 93. As we know there are no great wines just great bottles. If tonight's wasn't great it was darn close, and got better as the night wore on. It was opened 5 hours earlier but sealed back up so technically open for about 3 1/2 hrs. My suggestion therefore would be about a 3 hour decant if the bottle is pristine. Then again, who knows until it's open.
Spices and sous bois dominate with some elegant raspberry and violets. Very nice, and with a long finish. If there's a nit, it isn't the most complex GC out there, but I thought it was delicious as did the others in the group.1,183 views
