Decanted for about 45 min before drinking. Nothing on the nose for about 2 hours, then it started to awaken. Tabacco, prune and a hint of raisin. Still a big wine, tannins were still firmly in place, but not distracting. Black cherry and anise, mixture of different herbs. Went well with home made bolognese. Finish was medium length. A well made wine.

Done!!!! This bottle was kept in a wine fridge for the last 6 years, and really did not improve over the other bottles we had during this time. Still some tannins there, but the fruit is fading fast and will not get any better.
