Real expressive blackberries, violets and pepper nose, so intense...a tannic youngster on the palate, but great concentration and oak integration, a little heat and lower acid detracts but a solid hedonists wine. 2008 vintage.

Birthday dinner with Emily at steakhouse in NYC - 2015. One of the best wines I've ever had.

Outstanding $40 wine. Looong finish. Plenty of acid for a big dish.

Ridiculous. Like a bordeaux on steroids. Crazy fruit, blackberry, plum, currants. Spicy oak, espresso, cocoa, cigar, leather. Intensely concentrated and hedonistic. Masculin, gentlemanly even. I want to rub it in my hair.
