10/2/2022 - drmilkweed Likes this wine: 94 pointsPerhaps reaching its peak now. Perfectly balanced. Prominent spice. soft vanilla, oak, and cocoa melded with with subtle ripe red and black fruits--blackberry, plum, and currant. Barnyard notes of past tastings not noticeable. 2 hours after opening for full expression of complexity. |
