Deeper orange color, with a touch of brown. A very mature nose, with toffee, peach marmalade, cardamom, dried nuts, and iron. Fading fruitiness taken over by oxidative tones. Opens up in the glass, with some of the oxidative characters blowing away. The palate is hanging on better, being still fresh and lively, though possessing a mature wine’s vinous concentration. Our bottle was somewhat past its peak already. | 91
