Much improved from the prior bottle of this vintage. There is significant fine sediment and taking more care in separating in the decant made for a world of difference. Decanted and enjoyed over 4+ hours. Was as vibrant and heady at the end as it was after 45 minutes. Deep structure and well balanced. Fruit was rippling. Just fantastic. — 21 days ago

1 hour decant(decent fine cloudy sediment). A striking still dark garnet with bricking. On the nose: Intoxicating notes of brambly blackberry, potting soil, mint, milk chocolate, herbaceous, peppered jerky. Taste: velvety, structured, leaning savory wine with dark plum/cherry, graphite, earth, leather, meaty, spice, and a long dark chocolate espresso finish. YUM!! — 2 months ago

1 hour decant(some fine/cloudy sediment). A striking still dark magenta color with a little bricking. On the nose: Captivating savory notes of stewed dark fruit, mushroom, worn leather, charcoal, stewed meat, and touch of cinnamon. Taste: powerful, bold, structured wine with dark plum, dark chocolate, green bell pepper, earth, and a dusty, baking spice-cedar long finish with maybe a touch of heat and just slightly grippy tannins YUM! Drinking well with time to go. — 4 months ago
