  This wine opened up a bit sweet but very enjoyable from the start. It’s balanced and a touch of oak. The mid palate is firm and the finish is long and pleasant.

  2 hrs air. Substantially better than my last tasting ( about 2 years ago?) - much more integrated as well as developed. Very penetrating bouquet of cherry, burnt hay, cloves, enoki. Also a very definite edge of kerisik. Even the nose has a oily, olive texture to it. Palate is full of fine tannins that still have a slight wild tinge to them, but otherwise a very harmonious wine. Some wines are compelling and intricate in their center. This has a fairly four square core but all sorts of interesting spandrels flying out from it. Yeah, I know that sounds like the opposite of “integrated”. Well, I guess that means it is still on the ascent. Give it air and it is now already very interesting.
  Score: 92-93. Relative to expectations: ++

  Arômes de cèdre...d'épines, de sous-bois et de champignons, ainsi que des notes végétales...herbacées. Saveurs discrètes de fruits noirs et d'olives...et terreux. Mi-corsé et souple, texturé avec une finale moyenne...pointe asséchante et amer...chocolat noir. Saveur de noix de coco après aération...excellent avec steak sur le BBQ !!

  Had a glass from a decanted magnum. Medium garnet. Dark berries, vanilla and some soil. Well balanced with integrated tannins. Medium length. Nice
