Finally opening this bottle I received as a gift at our senior manager promotion dinner. Thought it would be over aged but still delicious! Bold, vibrant brick red in color. Strong flinty, slate aroma, not much fruit. Tastes of smoke and leather. Some fruit and round chocolatey notes almost. Pretty high tannins, good acidity and medium high body. Interesting and very enjoyable complexity. Nice treat on a “regular” Friday!
