Sampled at Oinoscent, bottle found in an old cellar and brought by colleague. No decant, popped and poured The wine smeels over the hill and far away. Faint notes of red cherry, old oak frame, dusty, old cellar, some tobacco notes, sour cherry marmelade. Palate with a hint of red fruit, elevated acidity, warmth, stale jammy notes, thin to med body, gone. But, for 22yo wine, coming from the worst vintage of the century and aged under quite questionable conditions, it was better than feared
