March 6, 2016 - Decanted tastes nice initially, but really opened up at about 1 hour.
Delicious. Tannins have mellowed, there is still some astringency, but not much acidity. The nose is amazing. This wine is drinking really well right now. Diana would have given it 97. -

June 28, 2014 - Didn't take notes - my wife loved and I thought it was excellent although the green tannins on the finish were very noticeable. Decanted for 2 hours and the last time I tasted this wine (last Summer) it was milder. Only drank 1/2 the bottle so will re-taste tonight. 91+
