Short decant. Dark color with a hint if browning at the rim. Powerful expression of plums, black currants, leather, and tobacco. Finished just a touch hot. This has held up well to see its 10th birthday and probably has enough in the tank to hold for longer but I don’t expect a marked improvement. Drink now.

Blackberry, cassis, eucalyptus, licorice, mocha, mossy earth, oak and hints of mint. Great structure and well-integrated tannins.
