2016 vintage! Ripe and baked plum notes coincide with suede and black pepper pestled. Beef cheek, porcini and cola find blueberry and cedar. Exquisite mouthfeel of silken raspberry tinged with black pepper; tannins integrated, but tsunami suggestive. Black cherry, cinnamon, cedar, pepper, and oak. Generous, with clove assertive, and vanilla extract as a rinse. Palpably papal, where red is the staple.
