This time we did not decant the wine at all to avoid the hints of sour lingonberry we got last time. It smelled like pepper and hint of raisins, the taste was full but not as spicy as it was a few years back.

This wine shows its age, it smelled deliciously, it tasted great, but in combination with food (angus beef on the grill) it faded away. If you do have a bottle left, enjoy it without heavy meat/sauces, we thought it was better with hor d'oeuvres, or simply as a social glass of wine.
