Decant: 6 hours - Clear and pale with a browning rim. Ruby centre. Sweet, dusty nose (the topic of dust tones in wines generated some conversation). Fiery into the mouth with the dust tones noticeable. Sweet and rasiny mid-palate with some fire from the alcohol. Lots of chocolate and coffee. Great way to start the tasting. Slightly short on the length. Overall a very pleasant wine. (I have a couple of these in my cellar and will aim to open them over the next 12 months.)
