1 hour decant(lots of chunky/fine sediment). A magnificent dark magenta color. On the nose: Compelling notes of dark plum/cherry, musky forest floor, minty chocolate, mushrooms, floral. Taste: explosion of silky wonderfulness with jammy dark fruit, currants, crushed gravel, sweet spice, coffee mocha, and a mineral-graphite longgg finish. YUM! Beautiful with time to go. Had to wade back into the 07 vintage and this worked.
