Wine was cellared at 12 degrees since release and is still youthful .Decanted. Nose of blackberries and mint with a hint of pencil lead. Towards the end of the meal more black fruits with a hint of burnt caramel. Chewy good balance with a long finish. Should be drinking well over the next five years (for well cellared bottles)

Wine was in great condition being stored at 12 degrees. Bouquet took about 45 minutes to develop. Good finish.
