  Surprised to find this drinking very nicely now. Slightly stewed but still with a decent amount of fruit. Lots of sediment

  Pretty heavy throw, seemed on point still - no hurry but not likely more to give unless this takes an unexpected turn

  Still hanging around, but a little past prime.

  I haven’t drunk Bordeaux for a while so I was curious. I primarily drink Pinot noir (Oregon and Burgundy) so that provides context. Nice aromatics, a little more stewed than I normally like but balanced with tannins and flavor in the mid-palate. Some cigar notes plus savory flavors on the finish. Lots of sediment—I’ve stored this for at least 13 years. It was delicious with steak and mushroom ravioli. Not profound but certainly a pleasure.
