Similar to the previous note, but more prune and fig, less leather and truffle. Just a touch more stewed and subdued, but the tannins nevertheless gave a bit of bite.

Quite mature, but wonderfully so. Raisined red fruits with figs, truffles, and old beeswax polished floors. Highly aromatic, quite haunting on the nose really. Palate still has good definition - cooked fruits, but nothing sweet or jammy, and there is actually a good lick of acid and some nice fine tannins. Alcohol isn't overpowering either, which is quite surprising given the year. In a really lovely place, particularly for the vintage.

Raisin, raisin, raisin and not in a good way. The bottles best days were way behind it.
