Hard to rate this wine as its far too young to be drunk, but alas. Shows pronounced youthful aromas of boysenberry, plums, violets, glazed walnuts, brown sugar and slight grape spirit. Intensely structured wine, insanely deft but ample tannin profile giving serious shape to the wine. Needs to be visited years from now.

Rich and full, dark fruit, mint, some cedar and leather. Med plus tannins. Needs years to develop further but doesn't stand up to the 2009 Taylor or Fonseca.
