Had this beautiful bottle for my birthday. The sommelier suggested we allow the wine evolve in the bottle and we took his suggestion.

Tasting Notes: dark fruits, earthy/minerally, herbs, tobacco and smoke. There is still a good freshness and acidity to the wine. Fine integrated tannins. It is drinking beautifully right now and is well balanced.

After taxes, I paid about $600 for this bottle. Is it worth it? Not from a PQR standpoint, but it was very cool to try for the occasion. 94 Points
