April 2, 2011 - Good on the nose. Some good concentration plums and cherries. Some strong oak, chocolate and coffee
On first Attack the bitterness of the tannins is overwhelming. Waiting and airing is help it a lot.
Oak monster is seating beside me here...
Definitely getting g better with airtime, but it would most likely take a lot of time.
For sure needs food... I would say a nice wine for a heavy lamb chunck....
Unbalanced a bit
