Guests of the restaurant poured a generous glass! Bottle purchased on release. Color bright ruby red, with a tinge of light brick. Nose full and deep, spicy and rich! This got better with some air time becoming very exotic. Perfectly balanced! Great length! The real deal! BRAVO! Would have scored it higher, but thought it was just missing that extra power. First time tasting this wine.

Smoky and mineral. Thick textured! There is some reductiveness which does blow off after air time. Good

Licorice, currants, full bodied, lush, underlying velvety tannins. Very good, needs time to intergrate
