P: Med body; RNDISH entry with NICE, ALMOST swtish frt met by astringent PUCKER which pretty much resolves by the LONG, POSS very, VERY slightly bitterish finish with a tangy/swtness (60:40) to the relatively tame dusty tannins. Unless one has tolerance for high acidity, this NEEDS through '20, then drinking for 3 yrs more. My EXC-, poss EXC-/EXC. 89-92 pts Burghound; [While this vendor's $43.95 is competitive, one wine-searcher source does beat it by $4.]
