a better showing than previous bottles.....still drinking younger than the age would suggest...dense, dark, this bottle provided some pleasure...I see no reason not to see if waiting helps 88ish

Drinks quite young, I would have assumed it was only a few years old. Fairly structured, with both a minor tannic bite and adequate acidity. Dark fruits with some underlying earthy tones. Very drinkable, but I will hold remaining bottles to see what develops

I believe my first wine from this region. Shows a little evolution but there is still lots of ruby fruit to be seen. Nose is tobacco and forest and hints of oceania. Good weight and mouthfeel. Soft and buoyant in the mouth, velvet tannin but good persistence. A whiff of fresh black and green cracked pepper on the finish paired with a hit of chewy fruit and acid. A refined wine with some rowdy undertones. Just starting to reveal itself. Excellent - 90-91
