I've had this bottle in my cellar more than 20 years. It was delicious. Plum/prune, dry cured dark olives, caramelized/roasted meat juices on the nose. Elegant and slightly spicy with well resolved tannins and a hint of warmth to the alcohol. This was better balanced than many later bottles that seemed to chase the Parker style of big/ripe/extracted/oaky.
