Impressively concentrated - some rough tannins, dark plum, herb, spices - cocoa, I'd like to try it with another 5 years of aging.

4 people found it helpfulDec 31st, 2014Dark plum with light ruby accents. Five Spice, black fruits, and menthol on the nose. I drink a good bit of Bordeaux, especially Cru Bourgeois. Full bodied, dense tannins, and very nicely structured. Charred oak, blueberries, licorice, and vanilla on the palate. More Five Spice, forest floor, and tobacco follow. Longish finish with spice and a bit of sweetness. Unexpectedly fantastic, this is drinking so well right now.
