Opened 10/10/19 good Bordeaux style blend with dark red fruits and a bit of earthiness in balance. Medium weight and firm texture but improve over two days in Eto. Seemed to have opened up with nice balance of fruit and that aged tertiary notes.

Exceptional value Bordeaux blend. ~12 yrs on it and still a touch young. Decanting is a good idea, filtering is a must. Tannic but softened over time. Red fruits showed through followed by earth notes.

Very fruity and doesn't seem as aged as the year would suggest
