Tightly wound, built for the ages. Cedar and bloody game. Love it.

Nose of rich dark cherries to plums, lots of spice and some earthy and floral. Lots of acidity, fruit just a tad more muted tasting than the nose implies. A bit dusty, and secondary notes just starting.

A bit disappointing. Probably too young.

A little wine a day keeps the COVID away! Notes of cedar and cherry on the nose. Smoke, unripe plum, raw meat. Surprisingly smooth red fruit and dried herb finish. Even with 7 years of cellaring, this bottle is wound pretty tight. Should have decanted,l but since we had already had 3 bottles we didn’t. Needs at least 5 more years IMO

16+/20 (88+/100) Красивый и насыщенный аромат с нотами сливового джема, шоколада и сладких специй. Довольно тельное с высокой кислотностью и интенсивными, сухими танинами. Слишком молодо, чтобы пить сейчас, требует выдержки в бутылке. (13.04.17) #DVR2017
