Balance: Excellent
Length: Excellent
Intensity: Excellent
Complexity: Excellent

This was opened with 2 glasses poured on day 1 and then stored in a temperature controlled Somm du Vin for 3 nights. I honestly expected this to be DOA on day 4, but it held up remarkably well. While I believe this is fully mature today, it has enough stuffing to drink well for another year or two.
