I read your note (cuz I have some of these and trying to figure out timing), and immediately was curious about why you said "never decant"... went to write this not to ask you and funny enough saw I had already asked the question of you... maybe you just missed it, I would REALLY appreciate your view on that issue if u have time... thanks in advance

I try each wine immediately after pouring in the decanter, so can compare... maybe its a style preference difference, but only rarely find that I like the "pnp" taste better than the decanted version... but will admit there are times the wine fades and flops (tho rare)... to each his own for sure, I always tell my friends drink whatever / however you like it best
