Rustic and drying. Absolutely not what you would expect. About the 4th bottle not performing near where it should. (Gerstl gave it 19/20 when I bought).
Double decanted and left for four hours. Well structured with supporting acidity. Yet round and smooth to drink. Very quickly emptied; a good sign. Will develop for another 10-20 years.

Expected more of a wow-factor. A bit restrained. Properly made though. Will it develop into something better? Lost out strongly against a Rauzan-Ségla 2005 served at the same time.
