A thick dark currant tone up front leads to a dusty tannic body with rich coffee flavors, culminating in a lingering chocolate tinged finish. Amazingly an improvement over the superlative prior vintage. Superman's Pal brings the "super" to everything he works on (happy_cat emoji)

Drinkable but not for me. Not very complex. Medium body not enough mature fruit.
