Stunning aromatics of earth , cassis is and blood . Lovely vibrancy and focus . Not the richest vintage on the pallet but added some weight after being decanted for an hour .

1990 vintage. Excellent top shoulder fill. Cork about 90% saturated but removed with a Durand. Decanted and throwing slightly less than appropriate sed. Tasted two hours post-decanting. Wow. Scents and flavors of cocoa powder, cinnamon, old leather, mid-winter earth, coffee with cream and tobacco all bundled together and unified. This is not improving but has likely never been better. Great specimen and hinted at being stored for a long, long time in a slightly cooler storage capacity. 11.19.25.
