90 Points

Wednesday, November 11, 2015 - Opaque ruby/purple color turning rust at the rim with a transparent edge. The nose is quite dense at the onset, which requires a bit of aeration time to open up notes of dark fruits, damp garage, wet forest floor, leather, scorched oak and vanilla. The palate is dry; fleshy in texture; with a structure built for medium-term cellaring. Flavors of black currant, dark cherry, licorice, eucalyptus menthol, dark chocolate, espresso, meat and tobacco form the core. Finishes attractively with supple notes of vanilla bean, toffee, and dried herbs. Drink now with a 20-minute decant until 2025.
