N: Vanilla with notes of earth
P: LM body; [Sadly, as I was VERY much rushing here, I’ll have to go with my notes of a wk ago, not necessarily a bad thing given how CONSISTENT this has been tasting for me.] ;) 15% ABV; My EXC, poss more down the line? 98 pts WE & "Cellar Selection" @ $80, 96 winealign.com , 95 WA, 94 ea Suckling & Decanter (Morris), and 16.5/20 Jancis Robinson (Speller). [This vendor's $65.95 now puts it in the top 15% of wine-searcher's entries.]1 person found this helpful 4,749 views
