Dark garnet with some brick hues on the rim Nose of leather and earth right off the bat, notes of cigar box, dried cherries and herbs. Beautiful structure. Palate matched the nose in the early glasses and evolved throughout the night, bringing out some barnyard-y flavor early and rounding out the night with a perfectly balanced amount of fruit, earth and acidity. Wish I had 10 more bottles.

Enjoyed over 2 days. Day 1 was tight, hard to get past the alcohol on the nose and palate. Big tannins. Day 1 it was a little more mellow and you could get the fruit, earth and oak on the nose and palate. Enjoyable but I would hold for several more years.
