Tuesday, July 1, 2014 - - Garnet color with slow forming legs and aromas of cut green grass, bell pepper, blackberry, black currant and raspberry. It's balanced and has flavours of cherry, asparagus, honey and vanilla with a full body. Smooth texture with a long finish - This wine was decanted for 4.5hrs. It's was truly perfect in sense of what mature Bordeaux should be. Yes it needs allot of air and opening it for 15min will not help you. I loved this wine and it was truly sublime. I have a few more and will opened them up over the next 2-3yrs for sure.
