This wine continues to be backward, but the bouquet is beginning to develop secondary nuances from roasted herbs and sweet cigar tobacco to compost, leathery notes, along with plenty of sweet cherry and black currant fruit. I had somewhat higher hopes for it a decade ago. The wine is still youthful, quite pure, medium to full-bodied, but somewhat elevated, austere tannins in the finish at age 16 are starting to make me think they will never become fully integrated. As alwaysm making a judgement call on a wine destined to have a half century of life is sometimes difficult, given the varying stages it goes through, but I wonder if this wine will not turn out to be as profound as I onces predicted.
