Wednesday, April 25, 2012 - I shouldn't be (but am) surprised to find this one mature! It's got that telltale slightly oxidized sweet cassis smell of mature cabernet, along with some mineral qualities. In the mouth it's got rich sweet fruit and some leather. There's a slight bite to the remaining tannins, and the finish isn't particularly long. Overall it's a nice drink, and 10 years after vintage I'm pretty convinced this particular bottle isn't getting any better. Nothing wrong here, drink 'em now! I'll open another quite soon.
