  The bottle was in A+ condition. Superbly appealing! Primary fruit has given way to mature, savory, mellow-earth driven tones. Fruit still present, wonderfully aged; it's a Bordeaux in its prime -mature. Musty, forest floor, cherry and red fruit glide over the palate with grippy tannins providing an enduring finish. Majestic color with reds, browns, and orange- jeweled fire ember in appearance.

  Fantastic Value! Opened and decanted for about an hour. This wine tastes as though it once had some very earthy grit to it that has subsided over time. Very smooth and full of flavor. I bought this on recommendation and was surprised at how much I enjoyed this wine. Will pick up more.
