A bit cloudy and browning. Very stinky on the nose. Very woody in the mouth. This bottle was not 'right' to me, widely confirmed by others at table.

Slightly murky mid colour. Deep garnet. A decayed, oxidized nose does improve with plenty of air, but the palate maintains a sharp acetic edge. Spoilt.

N94, decanted 14:00. Awful bottle stink.
