  April 26, 2021 - Huge color; ruby with hint of purple.
  Nose > Immensely aromatic. Rich, fresh, fat, exotic, sappy & creamy. Spectacular mostly dark fruited.
  Purple, rich red & black cherry, black raspberry & black mulberry, with black truffle, licorice, lavender & lilac.
  Gorgeous interplay with oak & fruit; perfectly integrated.
  Smooth, creamy fine-grained oak.
  Palate > Big, ripe, rich, sappy, lush, taut, intense, complex fruit.
  Black, purple, blue & red fruit, with great interplay between the shades/colors/flavors.
  Big, rich, ripe, slightly grippy fruit & oak tannins; great fruit/oak combo.
  Great balance, acidity, intensity & length.
  The gorgeous, big, ripe, rich, taut, fresh & sappy fruit comes along for the ride all the way through the long, extended finish & aftertaste.
  Wow.
