Wednesday, December 2, 2015 - Spectacularly unexpected brilliance here through and through from its crystal clear appearance through to its shifting aromas. I was surprised how open this is already - Meaty, perfumed and feral all at the same time - this has a real depth and elegance to it, with some dark cherry and grilled meat action going on. Tannins are perfect here, with a defined, linear structure that works beautifully with the fruit, not one thing gets in the way of the other. Excellent.
