Outstanding. Rich, intense tannins with an everlasting finish. Nose of truffles, red cherry, roses. Drinks well, but can cellar another 20 years with no problem.

[From magnum] Dessicated red fruit and tons of mushroom, earth, soil / utterly superb!

KWN #6. Smoke-filled, with a minty edge. A lot of secondary flavors here like earth and gravel. Little to no fruit. Love it. A long, powerful finish.

Good, very good. A bit young, but on the way to kickass.

Pretty closed. Mostly licorice. Not that unexpected considering vintage and producer

A wonderful wine now but I can hardly wait for a decade, which is when it will be truly fabulous!
