Not sure if I've logged the 2015 vintage of this; I drink a lot every year. I have to say that this year it's a little underwhelming compared to prior vintages (again, I go back at least to 2007 on this consistently). Body is lighter, medium plus instead of full, and the nose and palate are not as round. Acid cuts it up a bit midway through the tasting experience. Notes are not complex.
