Drinking beautifully especially after witnessing the cork crumble in front of my eyes. It has black fruits, smoke, musty earthiness, rawhide leather and mocha ...worth drinking now or over the next 5-6 years...not sure what its future is after that

Pure currant fruit, nimble with good concentration, still on the young side, aging very gracefully.

Cork was very soft, but wine decanted beautifully. Great, fruity taste!
