Very dark ruby color with some fine sediment in the bottle. The bouquet was hard as nails for about the first two hours and then it woke up to show great intensity of berries and florals, light tobacco and extra dashes of lovely perfume. The palate is seductive and classy and haunting. Medium-bodied with soft, grippy tannins and nice acidic freshness. With filet mignon or on its own, it was a pleasure. 5+13+17+8= 93

Decanted >1 hour. Nice cabbiness and beautiful fruit. Drinking very well right now.

A little subdued, maybe because a cooler vintage, I believe. Cork disintegrated during extraction.

Outstanding ... Let this wine decant for 45 minutes to 1.5 hours
