2015. No flaws whatsoever, just really clipped on finish. Nonetheless, tons of 2015 fruit and definitely gulpable. Expect more for this price however.

Simply awesome. One of the great successes of the vintage. Soaring nose of smoke, leather, licorice, anise, mint, blackberry, black cherry liquer and more. Just awesome. So intense yet fresh. Big, viscous and dense in the mouth with unreal density and concentration. Spice, terrific cleansing acids and such great structure. Long, nimble and juicy. Black fruits all the way. Amazingly rich yet so fresh. This is indeed very special.
