95 Points
Tuesday, December 31, 2019 - Paired with the main course at NYE dinner - beef rib roast. This '96 outperformed the '95, which never developed as did the '96, remaining a bit austere throughout dinner. Both bottles were given about a two hour decant before dinner, and the '96 was clearly the star, with beautiful aromatics, cedar, creme de cassis, dark fruits.
