Community Tasting Note

92 Points

" Lots of tannins initially, much better after 3h decant in the glass.
Tasting note from the producer: "Rich concentrated aromas of black cherry, plum, mint, cedar, and chocolate that lead into flavors of black raspberry and vanilla. The wine is big and bold and was created to enjoy now, or for many years to come as it will age gracefully."

I did not get any vanilla notes to be honest but definitely agree with the black raspberry, chocolate and boldness.

This is still prime drinking window imo and should stay there another 5-7 years easily."

I liked it even better this time!
