At full stretch but still holding on. Brick red color. Pretty nose of wet forest floor, dried cherry and blackberry, and earth. In the mouth, refined and balanced, showing restraint and elegance, but also still a good dose of fruit. Gets a little tired in the mid-palate, as the forest floor notes become quite pronounced. Fades a bit on the finish. But a really nice old wine. B+
