Still a baby, it reminded me of their 2006 but probably it will even outshine that one. It is a full-bodied wine but without any excess wood, perfectly ripe fruits and tannins, beautifully layered and very long.

Deepest purple red.. Slight opening funk or musky animal perhaps..somewhat prominent… Curious to see if another bottle has the same note…then blue/black berries, Baking spices,.. Tongue is blueberry, sturdy but nice tannins, leather, spice. Firm finish but uplifted with acidity…quite an interesting wine…maybe try again decanted No mistaking it’s a bold wine…

By far the best vintage they have ever made. Very refined, complex, elegant, very long and the balance was perfect. I didn't take any formal notes but this is an absolutely must-have for my cellar!
