October 20, 2018 - Another bottle of this,even slightly better than last time.This is absolutely fantastic ! Sensational nose of maraschino cherry,crème de cassis,graphite,violets,chocolate and spice box.Extremely full-bodied,essence-like decadent palate,such a creamy silky lush fruit in a unbelievable balanced package.Terrific length and depth,this is a hedonistic and sophisticated wine.You love it or you hate it !

It is really important to decant this wine 4-5 hours or even more. -
