Unreal nose for one of the best wines in all of NSG. Gorgeous black cherry fruit that is so clear and vivid. A hint of black plum but more black plum skins. Wild mint, desiccated tree bark, wild flowers and mega forest floor. Just stunning. 9.6 or 9.7 nose. Rich and deep with awesome purity and freshness. Really lush and succulent with terrific tiny berry fruit intensity. Superb concentration, structure and juiciness. Such a baby but not inaccessible. Really long finish and so compact. Glorious and can’t wait to see what the evening brings for this wine. This did get riper, “soupier” and plummier. Showed its “20” bones. Still fresh and deep but man 20 is all plum it seems like at some estates.
