This was a complete surprise! This is in a wonderful drinking window right now and exceeded expectations by a long shot. Wonderful overall balance of fresh fruit and hints of tertiary flavors framed by seamless tannins. It will be interesting to see how this develops further in the bottle but it will be hard to resist drinking my other two bottles this year.

Brought to dinner last night by friends. Too young, but after an hour decant showed good blackberry and violet nose plus blackberry, black currant and chocolate on the palate. Might be a lot of merlot in the other 25%--but that's not a bad thing.
