initially peach and jammy dark fruit, modern and almost zinfandel like, with an hour of air, tannins really tighten up and though the ripeness of the fruit doesnt change, the wine shows much more like a 2005, which was dopened 10 years too early

Pleasantly surprised at the classic profile. Superbly balanced with excellent structure. Stone and cherries. Less extraction than a lot of '05s, which I appreciate.

Still going strong, plenty of life left. A little less fragrant, complex, than the last bottle, but still excellent.
