Brick color. Nose: dark red fruit, cedar, leather. Taste: cedar, leather, red fruit, slight violet. Nutmeg, vanilla on the finish, a lot of tannins. Medium finish.

Nose of macerated blackberries. Palate displays some wonderfully chewy tannins with some amazing fruit laying right on top of it, coating it. Fully ripened blackberries and black plums with an interesting 'complication'. Deft yet bold with heft and grace, this is one to enjoy over the next 10 years. Perfectly balanced, this is a complete package. Just bought more....

Drank after a 90 minute decant. Aromas of dark cherry. On the palate, there is plenty of fruit and spice with good (but not too much) acidity. Very approachable and good with food. Would get again.

Drink in 2025. Mellow acidity. Still great structure in 2020. Drank over 2 hours. Great with bolognese. Pepper on the palate. Started getting some of that aged bottle funk on the nose opened up a bit.

Just a tad thin to be amazing but a wonderful wine. Minerals, Smokey, earthy with berry flavors.
