  OK upon opening, but evolved negatively in the glass. Rather harsh and austere, and not charming at all. Fruit and body level was OK, but the greenish notes disturbed the overall balance. A disappointment (again).

  Nose opens with mint, blackcurrant and a wilted tarragon character. Some basil pungency and a little tobacco leaf too.
  
  Palate is still tight with resolving but not yet rounded tannins, whilst correct, it doesn't quite deliver what the nose suggests it might.
  
  Decanted for an hour. Will revisit in a couple of years.

  Upon opening, it was completely closed and with not much nose at all. Decanted for 3 hours, then 5 and then left it for 10 hours and virtually no change at all. Closed, dull and completely uneventful. I am glad I only paid $30.

  Stern and closed at this stage. Another 2005 that disappoints a bit. Wine seemed in limbo and actually shut down again in the evening after an initial burst of energy.
