Interesting. Pretty fun. Tasty. Cool wine given the age as an experience. Medium body. Astringent out of the bottle which resolved after 20 minutes decanting. Some acidity left. Somewhere between a garnet/brick color. Not too funky.

Opened 1 hour, then decanted. Drank 1 hr later. Drank after an 86 Cheval Blanc.
Felt like it could have benefited from another 30-60min of decanting. Still somewhat dark and brooding. Great mouthfeel, good structure still. Some tannins still present. Very enjoyable.
