Half. Mid garnet. Mature, mellow floral notes with a touch of tar and warm leather. Some gentle spice and mature, slightly pruney fruit. Gentley interesting. ***

Half bottle. Mid garnet. Nicely evolved nose with pruney fruit, meaty and floral aromas. Sweet fruited and mellow on the palate, good acidity, fully mature now and drinking well in a mature burgundian style. Some complexity here and a positive finish. Good. ***

This was served blind, and it was delicious. Very smooth, with black cherry, hint of licorice, tar and a smooth persistent finish. I guessed much younger, and this bottle did not reveal any pruny notes or textural flaws.

Hmm, very orange, cloudy and oxidative. First glass not right but sufficiently interesting. Gave up after that.
