Happy Birthday to myself. ;-)
Needs lots of air, but then your typical pomerol cherry based, cedar, pencil. Full flavours, with soft tanine. Might go another few years in the cellar for ripping. But very quafable, as my good friend Peter would say.

Needed time, wish it could have been decanted. Nice structure and well balanced.
