Leads with wound-up but bright and saline olive notes, then develops with big, plush red fruit, bell pepper, a kind of piquant green tang reminiscent of fennel or tarragon, savory blood. Deep, rich, and extremely generous. I would have thought I was drinking a French Syrah far above my price range. Worth cellaring a few right away. — 7 days ago
