92 Points

Friday, June 23, 2017 - At 22 years of age, the thing that I was most impressed about is that it still had a rather dark crimson appearance in the decanter. Although not as dark as the 06 Bucella or 12 Progeny Rouge, this one had just about zero bricking or browning, and had JUUUUST a tiny amount of age on the nose. Just enough to intrigue you! This wine entered with just enough blackberry and pie spice. Green olive and green pepper notes in the middle. Finished rather nicely. Some pepper but mostly spice and olive notes dominated the finish with a little bit of grilled meat flavor. Nice wine.
