95 Points

Saturday, January 3, 2015 - From an excellent looking bottle, this wine very deep red center and orange rims. The high- intensity nose was ethereal, showing violets, black cherries, oranges, and soil.

In the mouth, this wine was attractive right out of the gate and then became withdrawn. It slowly opened again over the course of several hours. The wine was medium bodied with notable rounded tannin, solid acidity, and excellent length. The nose was quite floral but the mouth was serious and more mineral oriented.

The nose on this wine was in the 96-97 point range and the mouth was in the 94-95 point range. I don't see upside for this wine so it is time to find a reason to pop the cork.
