A more subtle nose than I expected given the deep ruby color in the glass. Rich dark fruit with black cherry and raspberry completed with vanilla and graphite. Tannins are well integrated but omnipresent. Small in texture but not soft. Lovely bottle! — 8 months ago

Unusual to be drinking a wine this young. Decanted 45min to begin. Nose somewhat muted, though dark fruit and oak are there. Inky purple. Great ripe black and blue fruit. Could still use more time in the air to blend together, but the minerality and earthiness is definitely there to match the fruit. Nice med-long finish. Decanting 2+ hours recommended. — 4 years ago
Sophisticated bouquet! Oak and dark fruit with plentiful tannins. Superb wine that probably benefits from another 5-10 years in the cellar. My rating is on promise! — a year ago
