  Really good. Might be at its peak. Lot of sediment. 1 hour decant.

  2004 Numanthia. Finally! Bottle 9 of 12 and it is in the zone……integrated and no longer too big and almost port like. The fruit is still there after 20 years, but now as part of a harmonious mouthful. One hour in decanter and away we go in Zalto Bordeaux. Now I need to try the last three a couple of years apart to see how it progresses but mmmmmm not sure I can wait too long.

  What a blockbuster!
  
  Trying to decant this was hard work!
  
  The sediment was more than any 1960/70/80 Bordeaux blockbuster I ever had!!!
  
  But once you are thru this the wine is superb and on apex!
  
  The wine is full body with dark fruit, some minimal oak, dark crushed rocks, and a silky smooth nearly Napa Cab like texture!
  
  This all from Toro for a dollop of the price of many others. You just need to be able to be patient. Drank way too many young and due to that my last bottle!
  
  On apex - 2034
  
  97p

  Drank this at a restaurant in the Caymans with a fantastic wine list - The Grand Ole House. Lisa - the Sommelier was awesome!!
  
  Decanted the wine for about 30 minutes and then 30 more in the glass. Nose was full of dark berries, cigar and leather. Very full of red fruit and coffee. Long finish. Great balance and structure.
