91 Points

Saturday, September 15, 2012 - This is quite good, but will probably never hit "greatness" (although who knows what another 10 years will do to this as it definitely has the acidity and freshness to go 10+ more). Dark red berries, some vanilla, dill (not overdone), mushrooms, new leather, but overly funky/earthy. Very refreshing on the palate, and the tannins are still there so this may have room to run. This got a lot better over the course of a few hours (bigger nose, tannins backed off, better mid-palate). Great producer. 2+ points of upside. Not much downside. Give it 2 hours in the decanter and you'll like it a lot more.
