Just starting to show some age at 7 years and gorgeous for it. The nose is rife with dark dried fruit, lush dried figs, candied walnut, violets, sweet new leather and peppery herb notes. Palate shows an abundance of fine, soft tannin and some bright acid. Very pretty right now and not sure if I’d personally hold it much longer.

"Lovely nose. Slightly herbal, dark fruits. Palate is fantastic with so much freshness. Blue fruit, good acid, high-toned tannins but everything in balance. Finish is long, drying, with good acid and a darker tone to the fruit that carries everything forward. Would do well with a few years but drink now with a few hours decant. Coombsville appellation and shows it well. 91"
