I’m glad I opened it. Dark fruit, earthy, as in forest. Fresh came to mind right away. Not in the sense that it is new and has many years left or is going to get better, but fresh as in a breath of fresh air. A bit of austereness, in a good way. I don’t think I notice it change at all during the time it was being consumed. It isn’t a wine that I have anymore of, any vintage, and don’t see offered much, but I need to see if I can find some more of it from better vintages.

My TN won’t do justice to this wine. However, because it is supposed to be “past its window,” I thought I post. This is drinking well. Drink now, but it is really good. Great balance; fruit, smooth, soft. I usually prefer the Ciel du Cheval, but this is really good right now. had with a Flannery ribeye.

Earthiness/mushrooms(?), muted (in a good way) red fruit. Elegant and light in the mouth. Pork chops, grilled apple slices, and brocholi.
