Was a little spirity immediately after opening, but noticeably clean on the nose and palate. By that I mean there was no earthiness or mustiness that you often get with older bottles.
This was double decanted then transported to a restaurant where it was put back into a decanter, and spent a couple of hours in the decanter all up... probably not long enough.
Brick red in colour, with cinnamon and sweet red fruits all the way through the palate with a fine long finish.
I don't feel like there is any urgency here to drink up, but it is fully mature.
