A well stored bottle. After an hour and a half decanting, notions of cherry, pomegranate, and the classic sous bois were very pronounced.
The palate felt concentrated, defined by a rather youthful acidic vein. Finely textured.
Noticeable age, a bit to go in the tank for this one. No issues with oxidation.

I would loved to have had this wine 2-3 years ago! The fruit isn’t really there now, though glimmers of cherries peep through.

Beautifully savoury, with notes of earth, smoke, and wet woodpile. Powdery tannins keep this wine alive, great structure. A graceful fall from its recent peak! Drink now.

Fresh, vibrant and attractive! Notions of crushed red forest berries, pomegranate and a perfumed floral/herbal complexity.
Palate is well textured with a fruit-forward approach, juicy acidity and longevity on the finish.
Needs some time, but still thoroughly enjoyable!

Left to aerate in bottle for 3 hours.
