92 Points

Thursday, June 11, 2015 - Nose shows a cool profile, dusty and dry, dry fruit with sweeter red small berries, herbs, mint, with a small touch of acetone and leather.
Palate is somewhat closed, showing only hints of fine red fruit, silky tannins, rather high acidity, with tart red berries on the long finish.
Balanced but not very expressive.
Very different from previous bottles enjoyed, as this seemed much more closed and less straight forward and expressive.
Fruit is somewhat hidden at this point.
This should be better.
It might be in a transition phase at this point, ready to burst out in a year or a few?
I hope so, because this was rather disappointing, compared to my expectations.
(92 – 94)
