Seems a bit oxidized. Good fruit but this strikes me as evolving quickly so I say drink up!

Apr 15th, 20162012 vintage. This wine kept growing on me over two days and is finishing absolutely delicious. On open it shows lots of very concentrated flavors -- mandarin orange, licorice, and some toasty oak notes. On day 2 it's more integrated and resolved, showing great balance and richness. It's curious -- there's something "red" flavored on the palate as well (ripe black plum?) -- served blindfolded I might guess red wine. I'm loving the richness and distinctiveness, but perhaps it's not for everybody...

Strong nose of hazelnuts and cloves. Has almost a medicinal quality. This split the group with many finding the 15% alcohol too much.
Served with flammed salmon and asparagus risotto.
