Out of a half bottle
PNP, this wine is very aromatic. In the glass a garnet and a palate very mature with tertiary flavors. Was a fun wine to contrast the 09 Hourglass with the 18 Blueline Merlot.
If you like a mature wine this one is pretty good.

I bet a 750 might be in the perfect spot with a bit more fruit which would be the ideal spot. Nice fruit with secondary and tertiary flavors. A decent amount of sediment so I don't think I would decant or stand the bottle up and pour right away.
Please report back what you find.
