Friday, December 9, 2011 - Old World tones of tar and cracked black pepper show initially on the nose, while notes of herbs and violets seem to grow out of a solid core of black stone.
Amazingly deep and multidimensional on the palate, this wine spins with a constantly evolving flavor profile of dark fruits like pomegranate and blueberry, dark stone mineral notes, subtle dried floral tones, and a variety of earthy notes that appear and disappear playfully around the edges. This is a bold wine with lots of body and concentration, and although it’s fantastic now, it could cellar beautifully for many years into the future.
