  From what we understand really old vines. Granted the wine is really young at this stage and full fresh young dark fruits.However it feels as an attempt to make a very "modern" style of wine. With good amount of oak, ripeness and 15.5% Alc to go along. Toffee notes on the nose, very fresh dark fruits. on the palate it is big and ripe. Not sure how this evolves but its not one we would be rushing to. 87 at this stage.
