Opened and tasted immediately: Mushroom, plum, cherry, big fruits, big
yet soft tannins. Decanted. 2 hour decant: Great color. Still tight on
the nose. The initial mushroom note is gone with the appearance of a
musty-forest floor with a touch of pepper and bacon. On the palette it’s
toasted cedar, vanilla, plum, pretty solid through the middle with a
long, complex finish that goes on and on. At this point I’m definitely
seeing 96 pts or more. 3 hour decant: Again showing better, more
buttery now with a bit more spice. The fruits in this wine just don’t
stop. Quite pleasing and still 96+ points. 4 hour decant: Just as
elegant as before. I’m quite impressed with the structure of this wine
and overall quality. Very good
