Had as part of a vertical tasting: 09, 12 and 13. Thought this might be past it’s prime, turned out to be the best of the bunch. — 7 years ago

8.0

Got on a steep discount and wasn’t sure about storage conditions. Initial taste after opening was very underwhelming. After a 30-45 min decant it really opened up. Plum fruit, and a cocoa/coffee finish. Sadly, the expression didn’t last. After another hour, it’s completely flat. — 7 years ago

6.1

Dead on opening, which wasn’t unexpected for its age given I have no idea how this was stored. No nose to speak of and flavor was like water with 5 drops of wine added. — 7 years ago
