What a knockout nose. Just a knockout. Smoked meats, olives, such lift, granite, flowers, gravy, so so aromatic. Mesmerizing. Such depth. Head-spinning. Right out of the gates as well. Best Barge Côte Rotie to drink young. Palate is so meaty, olivey and gorgeous. Blackberry and blueberry fruit and such purity, finesse and freshness. Incredible balance. Velvety and sweet tannins and such incredible texture. Finish is so long. Like a winding path. As this airs it gets juicier, like mega juicy and peppery. Also inner mouth florals up the ying yang.

Dark currant. Raisin. Sous bois. Opened nicely, but took some time. Will leave the other bottle for 5-10 to let the edges round out.
