22 years old and still with this potent tannins! Fantastic and I love tannins but the other part of the structure is clearly leaner. Albeit the wine is on the late peak, not showing any primary fruits but it's still an outstanding wine! . #QUICKWINe #photooftheday #winelover #winelovers #winecountry #wineoclock #winebar #winetasting #foodandwine #winetime #winenight #winelife #winery #lifestyle #winestagram #instawine #wineporn #sommelier #winetasting #wine #vineyard #london #luxury #madiran #red #southwest #tannat #cabernetsauvignon #france
