94-95. Profoundly deep and rich. Doesnt show its 10 years of age. Long, clean cork. This wine is timeless, could easily go 50-100 years.
There is so much going on here, from fennel seed and asphalt, to deep dark cherry and ripe sweet plums. A tiny sip explodes flavors and lasts minutes. I can’t say enough about how robust and special this wine is. If only I had another bottle to contrast against other wines of this calibre.

A gorgeous GSM (heavy on the "M") that has evolved beautifully. Very lush, with blueberry and blackberry, violets, a bunch of minerals, and spices (baking spices, menthol, some pepper). The tannins are soft and luxurious with more licorice, stones and smoke coming through on the finish, all wrapped in more blackberry fruit. Delicious. It can improve a bit with another year or two and then hold that form for another 10.
