Tuesday, August 20, 2019 - Prominent sweet sandalwood, blackberry, vanilla, killer floral and perfume notes, but it's the black tea component that unifies this wine and gives it soul. High acidity and solid tannic structure that suggests this will age beautifully for at least 10 years. Super steely on PnP, but opened up after about 3-4 hours. The oak presence is significant at this stage, but should mellow and integrate with a couple of years of bottle age.
