Opened for my wife's birthday, and we loved it! The nose is initially quite powerful and nuanced, showcasing a plethora of earthy and dusty notes of tobacco, leather, truffle, and roasted meat. With time, red fruits, mint, eucalyptus, gravel, anise, rosemary, and spice followed. Big, round, and lush in the mouth, featuring red fruit flavors (strawberry, raspberry, cherry, etc.), licorice, and spice followed by a long, candied finish. This seems ready and in great shape, though will continue to evolve for years. Complex and ethereal, similar to the 2009. Of course, if brett is not your thing than you might not enjoy this like we did - it was quite funky and almost Burgundian on the nose.
