It’s been about 4 years since I last had this wine. Has evolved nicely, and still has many years left. Deep ruby. Primarily black and blue fruit, full bodied, silky on entry, fine grained tannins, mocha, espresso, nice medium + length finish. Pnp, but a joy to see it evolve in the glass. Incredible wine, deserves its praise.

1.5 hour decant(decent fine/cloudy sediment). A majestic dark garnet color with some bricking. On the nose: bursting from the glass are beautiful notes of blackberry/cherry, smoked wood, bacon, slight funky soil, eucalyptus, and cedar. Taste: Nice! Silky, smooth wine with sour cherry, graphite, cedar, currants, and a earthy black pepper finish with a very slight tannic kick. YUM! Nice start to the weekend

Very fragrant, floral & jammy. Well rounded , balanced; with a bright entry, red berries, finish is spicy, baking spices. Very delicious.

I was given this glass and asked what I think. I thought it was delicious and while I’m no expert nor have I been trained at all which you can easily tell from my posts, I was wowed from the first sip. This wine evolves in your mouth and just continues to impress. Rich beautiful flavors combines to make a lasting impression. Simply a delight.
