My last bottle. Coravin’d a glass an hour before dinner. As you would expect, thin and tannic at first. But…put on weight over the course of the next two hours and toward the end of dinner this wine was exquisite. Fully integrated tannins, ripe red and blue fruits, balanced, graceful and pleasant. This wine is in its drinking window, but it will last another three to five years.

Keeps evolving in the cellar. Beautiful explosion of blueberries and dark sweet cherries in the front palate. The mid palate is dark plums with a touch of dark spices. The only flaw- the back palate is light, perhaps dried fruits? If the back palate matched the front and mid palatal power, this would be a 95 plus point powerhouse of a wine.

Deep ruby, full body, aromas of anise, black fruits and vanilla, resolved tannins, mild acid, medium finish
