Big powerful purple fruit style, cocoa dusted mega tannin and licorice, nose full of plums, tar and cocoa. Still, theres lovely minerality running through this semi-modern blockbuster, plenty of acidity and mid palate size but as expected - heat is a bit strong on finish and theres some wood furnishing the tannin. There are better for the cost.

Apr 17th, 2015Jan 2022: too much fruit and oak, on the verge of being off balance. 8.9 at this point. Dec 2023, another bottle, PnP: this one just awesome, very strong, nice balance, lots of fruit and oak, which is now fully integrated. Still a lot of potential for further aging. The rate is updated to well deserved 9.2
