Today I killed a baby. Rudi's wines are built for the long haul. This has beautiful concentration of raspberry and blackberry fruit with tremendous mineral definition highlighted by earthy depth, but the acidity need some serious time to integrate. If you have any bottles sit on them for at least a few years. I won't open another for 5-8.
