  This took a while to come together: at first it showed some oak and the palate seemed unbalanced and not well integrated. But after several hours the oak dissipated and all the components blended into a seamless and lovely, firm and mineral wine. For some the red of the evening (but only at the end of it).

  nailed it, very elegant but with a lot of power. Dark cherries, spicy, some black currant, very saline. Everything at his Right place. 92

  Beautiful nose of black cherry and smoky minerals. Really delicious ripe black cherry fruit accompanied by vibrant, fresh acidity giving the wine a mouth-watering juiciness. Quite rich and intense but also structured and refined with a strong mineral content that shows up on the complex finish which also has great floral lift. This is gorgeous to drink now but has the balance and stuffing to grow even more complex over the next few years. I really like the way this wine ages. 93+

  Enjoyable wine. Plenty of dark dense fruit. Brooding. Tough tannin, hugely chewy. Lovely freshness/lift thru the palate. Needs some air time to really open it up.
