Served this slightly chilled (12’C?). Gorgeously fresh and pure dark fruit. Succulent, juicy, still primary…. Tannines and alcohol beautifully blended into the dense and viscous core. Only a slight hint of spice, chocolate and licorice now. Sweetness and freshness in excellent balance. It even feels more fresh than sweet at the moment. Certainly not too heavy nor intense. This is so forward and yummy and sexy right now… I just don’t miss the complexity it might be lacking at this stage. Sure, it has a few decades of life left and it could get more cerebral and complex… But don’t bother. Drink it now! — 23 days ago
Magnum, still tasting incredibly balanced. Dark cherry, plum and cassis predominate but secondary notes of leather and mocha quickly follow. The acidity is palpable. The finish is long with setting flavors of ripe dark fruit. — 8 days ago
