This wine is starting to go past it's peak. The wine had a lof of off odors when uncorked, but the nose improved after about an hour of decanting. The wine had an amber/brick edge, a nose of saddle leather, sage, and a little black fruit. The wine had a truffle like note on the palate. The fruit was fading. The finish long and pleasant.
