Still has some years on it. Licorice and chocolate are the themes in this one with the licorice dominating. If you don't like that this may not be your cup of tea. Had it open over a couple of hours and it mellowed very nicely.

From 3L bottle. Has held up very well in large format. Nice oak/tannin integration, fruit still alive but fading. No real "Rutherford Dust" but very satisfying drop
