My note would be about the same as my last one except that the change from glass to glass was not as pronounced. But its total development over the evening in the decanter was amazing and once again I decanted it way too late. I did not feel it was anywhere near to being past its peak, but I‘m not sure how much is to be gained by still keeping it. It is in a very nice place at the moment. It may still develop more tertiary notes, but I‘m not convinced that will do this wine good.

Not much to add to my last note except that this bottle was in a slightly better place I felt. Hard to say exactly how, maybe just that everything fit together just a touch better, everything just a touch more in place. Glass to glass it got more delicious. Each glass from the decanter made a stunning jump forward compared to the previous one, I could have decanted it much more in advance.

Drank soon after opening. Lacked interest and complexity. Improved after an hour or two. Best guess is this could still improve and certainly needs opening and/ or decanting in advance

Lots of dark and red berries in there. Hints of spices and herbs, eucalyptus. Still well structured with tannins. Certainly one of the best Provence wines I have ever drunk. Could not get at the full depth of its aromas though. Hopefully with the next bottle.

This bottle was faking the funk on a nasty dunk. Dark fruits and spice. Tannic still. Lots of life left.
