Way more developed and open since last year. Still could benefit from a bit more time, but now starting to feel close to ready.

Dark fruit and iron/blood on the (lightish) palate but quite a reserved nose. Hopefully these just need a while longer to open up

Very weird aromas at first. Hard to identify, but I get dust and iron topping the fruit base. Very tannic and dry at first, but after a while in decanter it opened up with classic Gevrey bouquet of dark cherry, blackberry, cassis and white flowers. Still, expected a bit more.
