Friday, March 8, 2013 - Deep crimson. With hardly any signs of aging. Dense and vital in color.
After decanting the aromas were still locked. It took two hours until the wine opened up and presented its amazing line-up of aromas.
Graphite and Mineral Characters. Parsley and other Herbs. Decent fruit, as Dark Berries. Freshly ground coffee. Some Tar and Floral characters.
Enormous diversity served with great finesse!
Earthy and Mineral characteristics. Cacao, Toasted Oak, Cloves with hints of Eucalypt. Beautiful Green facets. A little Fruit, Dark Berries and Cherries.
Finishes medium-long with vibrant Acidity and present Tannins.
Beautiful texture and mouthfeel!
If you are patient, you´ll be rewarded.
The wine needed time to open up and to show itself in an extraordinary way!
This is not the “normal” fruit dominated Napa Valley Cabernet.
Beautiful complexity and balance.
