I expected more. The wine is fine, but it misses the mid profile in the mouth, yes there are tannins, spices, acidity, but slightly flatter than expected. I'd say the wine is at the peak, despite the tannins and acidity are still there I would not leave any bottle in the cellar longer(actually this was the only one I had).
