Decanted 3 hours. This bottle is very different than the last one I posted on. This bottle has no overt oak and has a bit more baby fat still. Very silky bodied with fruit only starting to mellow with age, still some light tannins on the back end, creosote, and a touch of smoke. A very full and long finish. This bottle still shows very youthful, well balanced, and should age nicely on its present course. I was 88 points on the last bottle and as you can see this one was way different.
