Cracked a bottle of the 2012 to celebrate good news. It's a stunner.
Seductive dark red fruits and a deep rich kalamata olive jump out of the glass. Underneath there's a potpourri of spice and exotic wood with perhaps a hint of vanilla bean from the barrel.
A very full, round mouthfeel carries evocative flavors of Bing cherry and fleshy plum with a long meaty mid palate, finishing with a wisp of smoke and herbs. Utterly complex and pleasure inducing.
This bottle is worthy of even the most discerning critic and appropriate for any momentous occasion. Savor with a cherished friend or lover!
