A real treat. Decanting this wine was an experience in itself as the air filled with chocolate, date, caramel, and dark berry scents. The nose is extremely generous with evolving and layered aromas showing age, yet still a freshness. The mouth is rich, full, sweet, showing surprising tannin and acid freshness for a 17 yr old wine. Flavours run all spectrums from fresh red cherry to dark stewed plum. Massive lingering finish. This was the #Wineofthenight under a full moon, sitting around a bonfire with wine geeks. We inevitably got wasted. Watch out for dry cork. Bring on the bleu and chocolate
