Decanted about 90 minutes, and it was drinking extremely well. I was very impressed with this wine. Beautiful nose, with plenty of tobacco and leather, some deep blue fruit, and some fig. Tannins are smooth an well-integrated, soft. Prunes and more figs on the palate. Yum.
Drinking very nicely right now. About 90 minutes in the decanter, and this was a ringer for 90's Bordeaux. Very nice wine. Enjoy now with a brief decant, or age it a bit longer.

Clearly needs a lot more time. Decanted about 6 hours. Really great, a lot of fruit, but they manage to keep some balance. I won't touch my others for at least 3 - 5 years.
