95 Points

Thursday, July 20, 2017 - Dark red with lighter purple edges. Medium intense nose with intense concentration. Eucalyptus and rich berry fruit, hints of cassis, scorched earth and thyme. Long concentrated dark berry flavours finishing with a bit of menthol. Long tannic finish.

Just beginning to enter it's drinking window.

I was thinking about keeping it down for another couple of years but i don't want to let it go past it's best. Do you feel yours was at it's peak now or had a little room left to develop?
