Bottle in seemingly good condition with cork soaked about 3/4 of the way up. Asphalt and powder-puff on the nose, yielding to dried fruits with an hour of air. Good acid on the palate with well integrated but drying tannins. Somewhat clunky on the palate with a finish that's quite austere. Maybe this needs more time but I can't see this ever exhibiting much charm or intrigue.
