Like to check the oil ever now 'n then on this bugger. Still deep ruby with no signs of aging. High floral nose of the cab franc hits first then the red fruits of the cab, spicy nuances from the light oak treatment, with vanilla overtones. Silky entry with a solid mid-palate and a good long finish. Coming along swimmingly and IMHO should see the light in another 2-4 yars'. A really solid effort after the stunning 94.WW
