But there was nothing particularly special about it, and nothing to really comment on. I'd given it about 30 minutes after decanting.

June 14, 2010 - This was far superior to the dry fruitless 95 vintage I tasted earlier. Quality look and feel to this wine, slightly too spicy for my taste but otherwise nicely balanced but lacking in complexity
