After being tightly wound for years, this drank really nicely. The tannins have resolved and plenty of fruit shines through. Should drink fine for many more years.

Decanted, was tight at first but really started to open up after about an hour in the decanter. Its consistent with Luc Morlet's cabs, great fruit on the attack (currants and black fruits) with polished, refined tannins that make for a moderate, pleasant finish. Its drinking quite nicely right now but will also continue to evolve for several more years.

Needed a good 3+ hour decant but once it gets the air, plenty of fruit here and it’s well balanced.
