This wine is showing signs of aging. It was a bit flat and musty. Not so much fruit and tannins left. It was still drinkable. Nothing objectionable. It was nice to compare it with the 2007 and the 2012.

Just opened this after a tough day in the market. Fully mature with little tannin left. However it is still drinking beautifully. Probably got a few more years imho.

Please open 30-45 minutes before drink. It is much better than straight way when up pop the cork. Probably at peak drinking as tannins are gone or well integrated. Get tobacco, pencil lead on the noise, very soft. not much finish. I would not pay more than $40/bottle for this wine but at this point people only have it in their cellar. Net, better wines but pleasant. No flaws.
