Opened for my wife’s 40th birthday. Purchased at auction and the wine was in wonderful shape.

Clear rim and slight bricking. Anise, cassis, red fruit, vanilla, dill, herbs, light floral notes on the nose. Palate leaned into red fruit with the herbs and vanilla. The fruit was amazingly fresh for a bottle of this age. Still a lot of structure with quite a bit of acid and supple tannins.

I’d probably have guessed this wine was 20 years old if I had tasted it blind. It is aging so gracefully. Took about a half hour to open up. Stayed in a really nice spot for 2-3 hours then the fruit started to fade.
