Probably a 94 four for me on day #1 but 96 on the following day. Tasted really good at the PnP but quickly shut down and needed lots of time in the decanter to open up again. Dark fruit with graphite, dark chocolate, coffee grounds and some other earthy notes. Tannins were a bit strong but not distracting. Lots of energy. On the second day it all balanced out and integrated. Really lovely and harmonious.

Vivid aromas of blackberry, violets, black cherry, and graphite. Full-bodied beauty with flavors of blackberries, licorice, milk chocolate and plum. Silky tannins and a 20-second finish.

Notes of lavender, graphite, black cherry and currant. Full-bodied on the palate with an array of tasty black fruit, licorice and dark chocolate flavors finishing long and minerally. Absolutely delicious now and likely for the next 10 years.

Beautiful aromas of black cherry, blueberry, graphite, pencil lead and black licorice. Similar notes on the palate with dark chocolate appearing now and again as well as plums and blueberries. Silky tannins and a 20-second finish.

Decanted for 2 hours. Gorgeous notes of violets, black cherries, mocha and graphite. Hits the palate with flavors of blackberry, blueberry and licorice with firm tannins and a 15-second finish.
