Had this wine in London about a month ago and simply had to try it again. I didn’t decant it, which proved to be a good choice as it closed down in the glass after one hour. Before that, there where wild dark berries, with a distant soft plum core and again this ravishing dark mineral snap which takes the wines into a higher complexity level. The taste confirms this mineral level and is a bit tough to taste at the moment – especially as the wine closes down in the glass and get's infected with bitter tannins. At my first encounter with this wine I might have been a bit too optimistic about its early evolvement – it will require some time in the cellar to come fully around.
