Only a few minutes in the glass and already very charming. Lovely nose of delicate rose petals and sous bois and, with a little bit of time, an excellent acid spine on the palate. It is a little hot and there is a bit of a plummy note on the end that slightly throws things out of balance, but all in all very enjoyable and rather classic in presentation.

Brownish/orange on the first pour and never inproved in the decanter. Maderized. Cork was moldy but quite tight and intact... ah well.

Agree with MADERA16, after just a bit of air this showed incredibly oxidized, bit disappointing given the reputation.
