Dark red purple with a near black core. Abundant nose of red currant and leathery tobacco. On the palate red plum, old leather, and tobacco. Medium long finish extends the palate with a bit more fruit. Drink now through 2026 when the ‘16s of the first label begin to show.

Gorgeous red with dark fruit and leather, would drink again any time. The age does it well.

Ignoring the advice of my left-brain I pulled the cork on this ‘16...and I’m glad I did. The right-brain yelled “Buy More and leave it alone for 5 to 6 years.” For now 8.7 with room to grow. (24 hours in it’s a much softer and harmonious wine than before. So, if you can’t wait 5+ years give it at least 2 to 3 hours decant.)
