This wine had one of the longest finishes that I have had in recent memory. This was a very tasty wine with near perfect balance. The tannins are just enough.
Now, to the aromas. At first, I was getting cassis and leather. This was slowly evolving with different aromas. About an hour after I opened it, I was even getting a wonderful smell of toffee.
If you can drink this over a couple of hours, I would recommend that. Do not decant, just enjoy the ride as this wine evolves into something different with every passing minute.
