In December 2015. The nose had interesting tertiary scents including meat and leather, along with cherry, vanilla, pepper and clove. In the mouth, smooth tannins and strong alcohol balanced with lively acidity. However, with the attack still had fruity notes to it, they have faded somewhat, placing the wine a couple years past its prime. Looking forward the drinking a 2011 vintage in a couple of years.
