Nice extraction. Ruby bright fruits, soft oak use and amazing purple florals. Much better than one would think and will likely be approachable within five to eight years of cellaring.

My beautiful wife is in love with this... Let me see... Some flowers mixed with red fruits, and pine. Mouthfeel is silky smooth. Medium tannins. This is just ok for me. One dimensional. Some perfume on the finish makes it interesting, and it paired well with tenderloin, but not a rebuy.

UPDATE: I added the plus to forestall blowback for my wife.
