Audouzed for about 12 hours, then decanted for 6.
Bricking around the edges, still fairly dark at its core. A bit of dark fruit on the nose, which is dominated by cherries, with a hint of spice. Really attractive. Tannins still present, but not overly so. Heat barely noticeable, quite fruity, in a jammy sort of way. A bit on the drier side. Beautifully balanced, elegant. Lovely Port, what a pleasurable drinking experience.
I think this is in a great drinking window right now. It'll continue to evolve, and it'll be good for at least another two decades, but it's really really great now.
