Ripe red plum, cassis, red raspberry. Quite a bit of structure. Clove spiciness points toward some new oak usage. Earthy in an inorganic way - iron, graphite. Menthol on the palate. Beautiful layers.

Primary, dark red fruit, almost jammy, red florals. Bright acids.
This is pretty Bordeaux.
Great attack, good structure a great cellar stuffer. 2011

Rich mocha and brown earth brown sugar blueberry cumin peppermint pattie and cedar cigar box aromas lead to a medium to light mouthfeel buoyed by solid acidity. Holly leaf, dusty oak and cinnamon pointedly acquiesce into a steak and tar, graphite and red currant concave tartness, with notes of burnt citrus. Slightly abrupt finish. A lot to appreciate despite its lopsided-ness, and unusually approachable initial richness.
