Tuesday, August 2, 2022 - An August Dinner for 4 (Lyon's Den): 1 hour decant, reading my age old last note:

(4/14/2010 rated 92 points: Decanted for an hour through the vinturi, it opened reasonably well. Black fruit, leather, iron, and iodine on the nose. Nice depth of these mostly non-fruit flavors on the palate. Plenty of grip on the backside, it's a really nice window into the vintage for '07 CdP's. I'm trying reasonably hard to resist opening some and this certainly deserved more time, but hey!... (4366 views))

This has gone from a big young wine to a smooth old fart (like moi?). The black fruit is more Kirsch and it remains earthy, herbal, and minerally. Less grip on the nice medium finish. now-2025, sooner the better I think.
