Drank in 2019. Took about 45 minutes to open up. Was not too tight to start with. But seems to be losing its fruit and punch at this point. A little disappointing for a wine good to 2025. But, still a phenomenal bottle.

Very soft. Tannins almost non existent. Slight berry on the front. Bouquet is ok but very slight. Nice and elegant. But definitely not forward. 2 years ago probably would have been great. I tend to like them a bit younger with a little more bite. Been open for about 30 min has slightly more definition than when first opened.
