Almost 8 years in the cellar... It's worth waiting. Don't forget that this is from a biodynamic farm. We let it breathe only briefly (10 minutes?) but I think another 1/2 hour would be appropriate. We did not decant it and I think it would have been unnecessary. This is a deep red wine that is heavy-feeling in the glass, yet with a myriad of very delicate legs - therefore well-blended tannins - it will not be biting. It is dark enough that we had to hold it up to the bright light to see through it. The nose is distinctly red currants. Delicious, bold flavor with long, long lasting after-tastes of sun-drenched dry cherries and coffee. This is well-worth the price and will last a long, long time in your cellar.

Absolutely perfect with a juicy steak. So silky. Hard to know when it will peak but I’d drink soon.
