  October 28, 2023 - Med acidity
  Med finish
  Med body
  
  Pale garnet w brown rim
  On the nose - dark fruits, barnyard, leather
  
  On the palette - similar to nose + a slight metallic taste/minerality
  
  I feel this has slightly gone off prime. Vs the 2004 we tasted.
  
  Ok. After an hour + in glass, it developed a very pleasant fig taste, reminiscent of ch musar !!

  November 10, 2021 - Rich and ripe like post say below. Roses and ripe fruit on the nose and palette. Still very vigorous and alcoholic. Great for a cold night especially now. See how this one develops. Kinda Port-like.
