Same bottle as Bob. This was great with the dish and own it’s own. Accents of licorice and mint. I imagine this will drink well for a long time. Thanks Dave and cheers to Al!
We had this paired up with a guinea hen entree tonight and it was a great match. I hesitate to say this is drinking at peak given the vintage, but it’s certainly not a waste at this point to try a bottle.
Wonderful stuff here, particularly with dinner/after dinner. Simultaneously ethereal, ripe, and elegant. Great finesse. Backbone is there to ensure a good life ahead, but excellent now.

Very dark cherry red color; lovely ripe cherry, red fruit, smoke and mineral nose; tasty, focused, elegant cherry, red fruit and minerals palate; medium-plus finish
