Opens up to a beautiful bouquet of dark fruits and spice on the nose, an outstanding nose. Mouthfeel finishes thin and there is a lingering green tannin that hasn't quite aged yet. Cork looked solid. I'd leave this cellared for several more years. Overall, really happy with this vintage.

Big on the nose, finishes thinly but overall still juicy and ripe.
