After a two hour decant this wine nicely expressed all that it had to offer! Complex and inviting on the nose, it's remarkable how long the wine stays on your palette. Charcoal, tar, with a spritz of black cherry characterizes my first impression, surrounded by a subtle oak note and a rich tannic structure. If you have an abundance of patience you should cellar this wine, and if not pop the cork now!!!
