Dark fruit, great soft tannins. Super smooth and consistent. Still has 10+ years of longevity. Eucalyptus on the finish with dark fruits throughout.

If only this wine didn’t keep rising in $$$ every year. Originally, I wasn’t as big of a fan of the GIII as the Sigaro, but this 2012 demonstrates how good this wine will get with some age. Not overpowering but still showing the power of New World.
