This wine wowed me on opening, and drinks well tonight. I love it, and wish I had more. The wine looks garnet colored. The legs are fast. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like raisin, mushroom, lead pencil, black pepper, cinnamon, clove, tobacco and oregano. It tastes like black currant (cassis), prune, sandalwood, bark, tobacco and stems. The body is medium. The wine has silky texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has medium acidity.

It has been 6 years since last trying this vintage. Very mature wine drinking very nicely right now.

Had my last one of these 3 years ago. Been sitting in the cellar. Has remained tight and bold.

After several hours in the decanter, the edges started to smooth out but this wine absolutely needs more cellar time. 2019?
