PNP. Needed a bit of air to open up. Got progressively better throughout a 2 hour dinner. Fresh and lively, loaded with dark blue fruits. Full body with resolving tannins on the finish. Could use a couple years in the cellar but already so good.

Decanted for about 45 minutes. Fresh and vibrant. Beautiful wine showing age. Reminiscent of a left bank bordeaux as minerals are becoming more apparent. Great balance and long fine tannin finish. No hurry to drink. Should stay in the drinking window for another decade.

Quick decant and served. Amazing blue fruit (plums dominated) pop. Great balance on the palate with a long silky finish. Fresh and showing no age. There was a touch of alcohol but it wasn't distracting. Fantastic wine.
