Great wine and probably at its peak. Lots of spices and black fruit on the nose, rich and giving in the mouth (anise, clove, currants, black plum and cherry). Flavors evolve slowly and build, giving way to silky tannins on the very long finish.

This wine started out a bit tight, but opened up nicely over two hours. Lots of ripe berries, earth, white pepper, with good structure and fairly long finish.

Good acid and fruit balance, mostly grapefruit and gooseberry. Clean crisp finish.
