deep colour Nose a little reticent compared with the opulent 2016, a little earthy, some raspberries and a herbal quality Tannins firmer than 2016, dark chocolate and then a prune/ date dried fruit character, long and then a little wild, even animal at the end. Very different to the polished classic 2016. This has a long life ahead of it

Tett mørk blå med lilla kant. Middels + intens på nese, aroma av mørke plommer, blomster, sjokolade og kaffe. Lett parfymert preg. Sødmefull, rik og konsentrert frukt. Mørke bær, lakris, blomster og sjokolade. Tett og stofflig munnfølelse. Litt tynn i avslutningen, men sitter jo en god stund.

Open for a week and a half in the fridge. This is the Napa Cab on steroids expression. Silky dark berry, plum. No raisin. Medium tannin. ABV shows on the finish. No cracks, all filled in.
