Good color, some age. Some berry fruit on the nose, but not much else. Good mouth feel with some fruit left, but this has sung its last song, I am afraid.

Cork was not an easy one, broke and disintegrated. Opted not to decant which turned out to be a good idea. Nose reminiscent of an older village Burgundy, but less barnyard and more forest floor. Color beginning to fade. Great mouthfeel with ripe raspberries very prominent, nice balance and good finish. After a while in the glass, though, it started to fade rather quickly (which is why decanting might not be a good idea).

Certainly seems to be on a downward slope, but still very nice. A nose of cassis and earth. A nice mouthfeel with good balance. Not outstanding, but solid.
