Decanted 3 hours. Upon decanting strong deep ruby color w/strong blackberry aroma. Flavor of soft lead pencil, tart plums & blackberries w/good balanced legs. Finish of light menthol and oak. very nice w/grilled Lamb Chops

Needs air. But then…. Not bad at all. Much more Margauxesque than anticipated. White flowers over the truffled black currant. Fruit is a little thin but it is in a really good spot now and should improve over the coming years. Nothing for the super long haul though
Pop n pour. Would have benefited from some time in decanter but a lovely drop all the same. Look forward to tasting the balance of my bottles over the next few years.
