This wine opened up quite quickly and initial nose of ripe plum prevailed thru out! What a lovely essence. The pallet followed with the same- very dark fruit, plum influence and nice blackberry background. This is so close to a very good port! The finish exhibited its tannin presence which stayed long and enjoyable - a really nice wine!

Coravin. Killer wine, identifiable by the aroma and confirmed by the taste. Obviously still young. Not firm until the last several sips of the glass. Despite the cost, it surprisingly still may be high QPR. I would line this up versus any wine out there. It competes with the following opened in the last week: Sassicaia, Clos Apalta, and L’Eglise Clinet. Graphite. Raspberry. Sweet, yet firm. Smoke. One person said this smelled more fresh than most of my usual wines.

Upon opening a blast of deep plum and a little leather. Flavors followed with similar flavors! The dark fruit and beautiful tannins are magnificent. This is a great wine!

Very young, but 2+ hour decant and continued to open thru our steak dinner. Always a great choice … did not disappoint

Drinking very special as expected all night long. Smooth beautiful fruits. Hints of vanilla.
