Accessible and easy to love. Pop and pour, this has generous helpings of cassis and plum. Some chocolate on the finish. Fine tannins. Drinks great now, could hold for five years or more I would bet.

The hype around this wine is utterly lost on me. Tried over 3 days. Yes, it’s intensely structured, I’ll give you that. But it’s also unyielding and almost devoid of fruit. I can only hope that this evolves, as those with more experience tell me it will. Right now, I feel like I spent a lot of money on a case of wine that will never be pleasurable to drink.
Ridiculously, almost comically bad. Basically zero flavor, like somebody figured out some technology to remove all fruit from a wine. Not even good enough to serve to the in-laws.
