Plush and rich, but still very fruit forward after 15 years from vintage. I like a bit more earth and spice in my Syrah. This hits all cylinders for texture but is not giving enough on the nose and just not complex enough to merit a higher score. Decanted about in hour; I wonder if others have had better luck with a longer decant?

Drinking really well right now for our taste. Lots of fun tertiaries but still plenty of fruit and bubbles. I wasn’t sure there would be any bubbles when I opened it - no sound at all, and it wasn’t just opening skills! But when I poured it, there was the effervescence, and it has persisted in the glass. A lovely bottle for Valentine’s Day.

PNP - might have been better with a decant but it was still enjoyable.
