94 Points

Tuesday, July 21, 2015 - Dark-red and brillant colored.
Smoky bacon aromatics forward. Little dark berry fruit but mostly tertiary with leather, cigarbox, herbs (rosemary!), grilled tomato and animalistic notes. Liftes by freshness of mint and orange zest.
Fine sweetness and licorice.
Smooth, and harmonious, yet robust and long on the palate.
Finishes with beautiful and cool spiciness of (green) pepper and licorice.
Elegant and harmonious wine of drive, depth and robustness.
