This is very youthful and fresh. Still has a long way to go. Big.

Like others, my cork disintegrated but once we got to the wine it was beautiful. Deep and meaty but so fresh for a 22yo wine. Not that complex, but beautifully balanced and complete. Bought from cellar door.

Where does 15 years go? Not as good as it was three years ago (or perhaps it's bottle variation). Possibly headed downhill, but still has a few years left in it. The oak is still the dominant flavor, but you know that going in.
