Gorgeous soft cherry, dried herbs hints of marzipan and tobacco, This is a gorgeous supple soft midpalate. Long and subtle. Just delicious.

Plum and leather. Spicy and gorgeously settled. Very pretty and sexy, and deep.

Still firm tannins but elegant, earthy truffle, leathery with fresh acidity.

Had 2 bottles from different sources. Both are quite messed up. One had great nose and tired palate, the other one had cabbage on the nose and magnificent fruit on the palate. Leather, dried red flowers, roasted almonds, long tannic finish. A bit hot, very bright and definitely has years left in it.
