This wine is now mature with a smooth texture and dark plum fruit that is quite dense. Unfortunately, the nervosity of the previous bottle from six years ago is not showing today. Quite possibly in a shut-down phase. Those who look more for concentration and power than freshness and precision are likely to rate this higher than I did. Cellared since original release.

Still very young. The freshness and nervosity of the vineyard are here along with crunchy black fruits. Medium weight and shows some power.
