Needed 1 hour last night then it got reductive. But today oh man! Nose is glorious red fruits, granite, herbs and flowers. Clay, iron ore. Some blackberry as well. palate is raw and feral with blood, guts and meat. Concentrated and linear. Unreal texture and finish but needs a decade. — 20 days ago

Medium Ruby with maturing aromas of black and red fruits with cedar, floral and pepper spice notes. On the palate flavors of cherry, blackberry and cedar with smoke and tobacco notes. Generous acidity on fine soft tannins with a long finish ending with fruit and pepper spice. Drinking well now! — 6 months ago

Lovely texture, richness without flab. Mineral nose, tropical fruit on the palate. The quenching freshness on the finish really takes this to the next level. Lovely. — 3 years ago

9.1

Just what the doctor ordered. The aromas alone make this a winner. Savory aged meats dusted in peppercorns and herbs. Palate is medium and finish isn't the wines strength, but the aromatics are the real deal. — 10 years ago
