Driven cork. Thought it would be best to decant, and did so, only to find zero sediment through cheesecloth. Likely a filtered LBV, which sat in the decanter for 6 hours. 1st night: Plenty of sweet black cherry fruit, concentrated but fairly one-dimensional. 2nd night: Thick, viscous, and cloyingly sweet. A flabby port, with just barely enough acidity and fine tannin to keep it in balance. 85 pts
