Strong concentration. Core of anise, blackberries, blueberries, olallieberries, spice, touch of green bell peppers, rich dark wet earth with crushed rocks, Rutherford dusty tannins, touch of white pepper, leather, saw dust and a dry concentrated fruit finish.

Dense black fruit. Opaque center. Finish is where the black plum fruit lies. $106

Big and fruity wine. I think needs a little air. Boy did this show well with a little time in the decanter.

It’s a recipe thing. This is a consistent wine year over year. Muscle memory hard at work 🤔. Lots of tannins. Full up front. Jammy. Drops off mid palette then finishes nicely.

Lush tannins, lots of backbone. Dark chocolate covered cherries. Great Age, nice 100% French Oak notes. Really opens up after a nice decanting.

Great wine. Cigar/cedar on the nose. Young and tannic but opens up beautifully.
