Decant: 8 hours - Gentle chocolate on the nose, very dense in flavour - almost Douro baked cherries. Full and sweet in the mouth, plenty of flavours and still showing a hint of tannin. Quite big flavours but also some bake. The flavours do get bigger in the mouth. Big and very filling aftertaste. Long lasting, concentrated and delicious - the best feature of the wine. Unbalanced, but probably a bottle flaw.
After having sat in the glass for some time, it became clear that this bottle was very mildly corked. 85 points
