Sunday, August 23, 2020 - 3 hour decant
Subdued nose with dark red fruit, mint, floral tones and a hint of tobacco and wood. Palate is more revealing with airy but attractive structure with fine acidity and tannin. Finish is light but lengthy.
Neither tasted too young or too old but more just generally muted; not unattractive or unwieldy which makes me think it could reveal something elegant and quite attractive in next 5-10 years.
91 today which does not account for upside.
