Great bottle but not as nice as the last? Bottle variation (?) Decanted but it was very accessible. Dank with friends at North Shore Lake Tahoe after skiing.

Popped the first of a six pack and was extremely happy I did, wow ! Decanted at Lone Eagle Grill (Closes 2024 🥲) Rich, super fine tannins , great dark fruit,balanced and delicious. Nose was enchantingly addictive! It evolved substantially as the wine aerated. Drinking now with a short decant or give it another 5-8 years and it should be drinking spectacularly, IMO. I will be hard pressed to keep away from the remaining bottles.

Popped and poured. No decant. Had with fish. this bottle took a little time to open up. When it did, It really was a brilliant and classic display of Hundred Acre. Tons of fruit on the nose and in the mouth. Finish was 45 seconds or longer. Velvety smooth but still packed some power. This vintage has easily 10-20 more years in the cellar. Tannins were smoothing out. Very enjoyable experience.

Classic Hundred Acre. Long finish, deep dark look to it. Tannnins are very present and muted fruit. Came out as the night wore on. Really good with red meat tonight. Feel it could be even better in a few years!

Full, smooth…borderline perfect. Just the right amount of tannins and balance. Ripe red fruits hint of tobacco.
