93 Points

Monday, August 15, 2022 - Kicking myself, for making the wrong guess on how much air this needed! After a quick sip upon opening, I thought a quick decant would quickly flesh this out by dinner time an hour later. For most of the night it was healthy and drinking like a pleasant 90pt 36yr old BDX that had lost most of its fruit a few years back. A bit thin. Then 2+ hours later with one glass left, the fruit magically appeared and this was easily drinking like a solid 93+ aged BDX and may have further improved if, I had any left :). Oh well, chalk this up to fickle nature of aged wines! The last glass was sublime in every way nose and palate both. 93+
