Time is the key with this baby. It was quite tight on day one and opened up beautifully day two and again on the third day. Earthy with black fruits with good oak presence. The fruit drives through powerfully leaving soft and supple tannins.
Already having five years under its belt and a long life ahead, I wouldn't be touching this for another few. Be sure to decant too, there's a bit of grit in there.
A worthy investment for the future.
