95 Points

Thursday, December 24, 2015 - Dark ruby color turning violet at the rim with a reflective edge. The nose is quite attractive - deep in aroma, sappy and amplified by a high octane level. Flavors of dark cherry, currants, cola, violets, incense, toasted cedar, dark chocolate, scorched earth and espresso are well-integrated in a full-bodied, polished, velvety palate that finishes long with gripping but refined tannin. What a difference time had made: in the bottle as well as providing some aeration; and what a blunder for me to have scored it 3 points lower just a few months ago! Drink now with a 1-hr decant until 2025.
