Decanted for approximately 30 minutes. Deep rich flavors of leather, dark berries and floral (tar and roses), smooth and balanced. Good structure with at least 3-5 years of aging potential.

Opened and let stand in the bottle for about an hour. Nice bricking on the edge, earthy aroma. Nice balance with spice and earth-tone taste; fruit is there, but settled into the background. Really needed a proper decant as the wine started to open up about 30 minutes after pouring. Can easily go another five years in the cellar, but not necessary.

Nice petrol on the nose; medium body. Initial flavors of citrus and light honey, gives way to good mineral structure. Didn't get any of the effervescence others describe. Simple, reliable wine, best to drink now.
