This is a big, dark, juicy wine from a vintage that wasn't supposed to last this long. Everything was well integrated and the age has added complexity that wasn't there before including just enough acidity to keep it from tipping into fruit juice. This bottle seemed at its apex and I plan to drink the rest of mine soon.

The tasting notes are similar to my previous on this wine but everything has been amped up a bit and the finish is even longer. A beautiful, complex wine and close to its peak I think.

This bottle was really nice without decanting. Black Cherry, cola and a bit of forest floor earth. Nice medium long finish and the tannins were well integrated.
