Just ripe cherries, pomegranate, pencil shavings and slight tobacco. Slightly more generous than 2014 w same silky texture. From a split.

heavy pencil shavings and cigar smoke on the nose. black olive and green bell pepper too. color is definitely what you’d expect in a 20 year old wine. palate is consistent with nose, very bordeaux-lite. heavy cigar box. a lot of olive and herb tapenade character. some black pepper on the finish too. very savory overall.
