92 Points

Friday, December 9, 2011 - Wonderful leather and sweet red fruit nose on opening - wouldn't pick it as a Pauillac. Fresh, but closed, tannic. 3+ hours air - this is dark and brooding, dark plum fruit, but mainly liquorice and tobacco, hints of red fruit on the nose. Real class here - and much better than the 2003 I've tried twice in recent weeks. Give it 3 or 4 years at least. 92+ on potential
