2 hrs decanted. Drank over next three. Same rating as the Ch Duhart Millon 2018, but this just edges it. Very different. Nose is awesome. Dusty red fruit with some forest floor, but just a little. Palate - Fruit more prevalent and juicy here. Sticky, tarry mouth coating currant and blackberry go seamlessly into tannins that make your lips stick to your teeth. Loooong finish. This is great. Pros say wait until 2025, but I think this is great. The softening of 10 years will be cool for sure.
