While it's safe to say that this is still enjoyable...it's not getting any better in my thoughts. It took about 30 minutes to open up...and took about 90 minutes before it started falling apart. Base-neck fill and the wine was showing it's age in color. Brick red with amber/rust color at the rim with scents of mushrooms, earth, and dried red fruits. Palate was very rustic with moments of brilliance in the 90 minutes when bright fruit shown through in the medium length finish.
