Awesome and layered. Intriguing aromas of cured meat, dried cherries, tar, fading roses and chalk; all classic stuff! Medium bodied showing intense and aromatic fruit, tight tannins, juicy acidity and a bold, sturdy finish. Many good years left, but darn tasty already. Most likely Marengo's best produce ever!

The best of Marengo’s bottlings imo.

Didn’t expect like this as much as I did. Typically too modernist for me. But this delivered with a more classic profile than expected.
