Sunday, January 8, 2017 - Double blind. Aromas of incense, violets, blue fruit and spice. Flavors of chicolate, blue and black fruit and vanilla. To use one of Parker's favorite words, there's a "hedonistic" quality about this wine. It's also well-balanced, with plenty of fruit for the structure. Adds a peppery spice note in the finish.
