Fully mature and hitting all strides at once. Gorgeous bouquet of smoke of minerals Earth Cedar spice tobacco leather. Concentrated and complex with lots of cedar, mineral, tobacco, leather, smoke, Earth flavors but yet with some good fruit. Long finish. Beautifully balanced. This is really drinking beautifully now and for that reason I would recommend drinking it up. I don't think it's going to fall apart anytime soon but now in the next couple of years is the time to hit its unique characters that it has to offer. After that it will start to probably turn into a generic older board up and last longer but not be as interesting and unique as it is now. Delicious wine.

Unlike the last 2 bottles which were starting to hit their peak, this one is more youthful and backward. Still impressive. Dark color. Sweet earth, spice, peppers on the bouquet. On the palate, concentrated and complex with good fruit but also lots of tannins and acidity. Smoke, earth, minerals (Lots), gravel, earth. Long finish. Drinkable now, this bottle begs for a couple more years of ageing. Drink now to 2026, possibly longer

Incredible. Great concentration and complexity. This is really entering its window drinkability and is hitting on all cylinders. Smoke, earth, graphite, cedar, dark fruits with good concentration and complexity. Definitely a must try.
