D+0h: the cork comes out intact, medium deposit in the tea filter and in the bottle, smells of fat blackberry and a little bit of lead pencil. D+1,5h: purple red colour, on the rim cherry red, smells of raspberry and the beginning of forest ground, smooth in the mouth, light body, forest ground in the mouth, in the aftertaste forest ground and acidity, short finish, this wine reminds me of a picture with bleached out colours, everything is there, but everything is very pale, perhaps I should have gone for a shorter decant (say 30mins)?, but nevertheless I will not buy it again.

I thought that in 2015 that it would have started to go over. But no, it is still has good tannin and colour. It also is complex, so an interesting wine to drink and enjoy. It is not for the 100% Merlot drinkers...
