  Nose and taste immediately after opening seems muted and closed, nothing too amazed. Left in bottle to breath for another 4hrs before second try. Strong dark fruits, blackberry and earthly note with a hint of spices and cinnamon on the nose. Overall, big but not over the top, can be left in bottle for 5 to 10 years to further develop.
  
  High tannin, medium acidity, high alcohol, medium body with long but somewhat sharp finish.
  
  (p.s. waxed cork is a pain to open without good tool)

  Had not tried a bottle in almost a year . Opened two hours prior to serving then put the cork back in and took to the club for dinner on the terrace. Dark fruit and hints of coffee on the nose. The palate was dark berries, plums, currant, tree bark and coffee. The finish was long and smooth.

  Had not tried a bottle in a year and a half. Opened three hours prior to serving. Dark fruit and hints of coffee on the nose. The palate was dark berries, plums, currant, tree bark and coffee. The finish was long and smooth. The slightly lower rating I believe was back in Jan 2021 I slow ox'd it for 8 hours and it was a little smoother.
