Second wine of the night (went out with clients...the Chinon was first. These guys are good!!)

Did not decant but they were drinking so fast that it probably did not matter. This is really nice for about $28 retail (about $50 at the restaurant Bouchee in Boston who's wine list is very reasonable in Boston). Ripe deep fruits, great structure, deep colour, cedar and a nice spiciness. Would probably need a few years yet to strut its stuff.
