Definitely not ready to drink! Could use another 10 yrs of age even though it’s already a 14 yr old bottle!! It came out of the gate charging like a bull with a very full and textural character! Amazing tannin structure. On the nose, could have been mistaken for Amarone perhaps from the warmer vintage! It did improve through the night. Would like to revisit at least in 7 yrs.
