White pepper, raspberry, iron, sandalwood just leap from the glass. Red and blue fruit on the palette, super fine well integrated tannins. Cured meats, insanely long finish. It’s shocking that that there is no heat with the alcohol content.
Drink it now with some air or hold it for 5-10 years.
This was quite nice, with flavors of kirsch liqueur, black cherry, luxardo, and milk chocolate. It was plush and polished, highly concentrated without any stiffness and the alcohol is concealed. Served at our family Christmas dinner and this was well liked/appreciated.

5/5 - deep ruby purple 14/15 - wonderful aromas of red fruit, a lot of various oak spice and vanilla, some garrigue 18/20 - this is where this wine shines. So well put together. Balance, harmony and no heat on this 15.6% beast! Fruit and oak notes prominent and our group all agreed this has a toasted marshmallow flavor that hits right in the middle of your palate. Spot on. 9/10 - overall a fantastic wine and feels like a good QPR at release pricing. 96+

JD gave this a perfect score and I can see why.

All oak and fruit that tastes like it was grown on the surface of the sun.
