2 hour decant. Jammy red fruits and leather on the nose, a little cinnamon later on at the back of the tongue. Still a little tannic and youthful. Probably would have been better to wait 'til 2018, but I wanted to treat myself. Great pairing with sous vide top sirloin and mushrooms. 90-91

Fabulous nose of popcorn and toffee, full and well balanced on the palette, and a long buttery finish. Great pairing with sous vide and seared sea scallops.

Corked! Rats! Seems like there's a beautiful wine underneath the funk, but this bottle was undrinkable.
