Extremely ripe and flashy even at 12. Not much behind the fruit to make it if any interest.

12 year old Blue Slide. Don't usually keep my Blue Slides that long, but this one was hiding and I'm glad it was. Floral nose. Jammy blueberries, anise and truffles/forest floor notes. A bit gamey. Full-bodied, layered, plush with superb texture. Grand Cru like. I'm gonna miss these.
