Bacon, leather, black pepper jerky. Figs, dried cherry blossom. A great wine, but a little over the hill.

Notes from a long time ago. Compact and tons of structure w/ decades of maturing to do. Will be outstanding but only very good right now.

Very pretty blackberry nose with smoke and a hint of garrigue. Best nose so far and so pretty. Very polished and modern in style. Plenty of oak and fruit. Loved by the crowd. Me, it's good especially on the nose, but it's so young. Needs time to develop.
