Decanted this one for a touch over an hour before consumption. Upon opening it was expectedly restrained with tar and a little cassis. In the glass the nose unwrapped leather, faint cigar box, hints of bon fire and dark roast coffee. In my opinion this wine will still hold up for a couple more years to reveal a very well balanced and complex wine. This wine provides some lovely drinking.
