Fruit forward with a leather mid palate. Hints of vanilla and spice. The more you let it breathe the more it balances out.

Fruit forward but substantial tannin and decent acidity. Got better as it breathed- and as we drank more, ate more food!

Отлично! Держать 2010 больше не надо. Копчено густо вишневый аромат. Зрелые танины, оптимальная кислотность.

Found it a little light on fruit and heavy on sulphides. "Burnt rubber"
