2005 vintage. Decanted with some sed and tasted over the course of two hours. Nice nose. Chunky finish that found a bit of finesse as time went on. Solid but unspectacular. 3.3.24.

Took about 2 hours to really open up in the decanter and then all the fruit came out of nowhere.

This wine will last many more years. A big ripe wine but nice balance. 2005 vintage October 2017.
