Very fragrant, toast/char still singing, very balanced and integrated. Very nice bottle. Kudos. First night open. Mid-shoulder fill, cork and capsule fully merged together with alcohol loving black mold thriving on angel share volatiles. Cork fully saturated and disintegrated upon use of cork extractor with side prongs. Little iron lingering on palette. Still could age many more years, fruit still there and everything singing. Nose aged Pauilliac with meaty and thus iron notes. *2nd night still drinking great, notice some green pepper on the palette. Toast blew off, though expected. Mouthfeel and viscosity still holding decently. Tannins coming through more noticeably.
