Popped, breathed in bottle 90 minutes, consumed over next 90. Similar to previous. Cruising in the cellar, lovely bottle, didn’t want it to end. Wish I had more.

Utterly profound. A nose I would have been happy just to sniff all night, beautiful intensity yet weightless, refreshing with impeccable balance and an expanding kaleidoscopic finish that I can still taste days later.

Decanted 4 hours. What a magnificent bottle of wine. Much better than last year’s bottle. This was full of soul. Big and enticing earthy bouquet, with a seductive earthy palate that showed pure fruit, complexity and balance. Finesse and evolution with each sip and a long elegant finish. One of the best wines I have ad this year.

Big funky barnyard bouquet upon opening with deep earthiness on the palate. The wine began to reveal its true sense after a couple of hours. The next day the funkiness blew off and the purity of its fruit shone thru. The palate and finish were elegant. Suggest decanting this for at least 6 hours before drinking.
