Dark warm and emulsified berries with lots of cinnamon and other warm flavors. In much better shape that I'd have guessed for the vintage and storage.

Dark ruby red with purplish hue. Started off a little feminine with floral notes and then opened up with dark cocoa, cinnamon and dark berries. Plush and thick on the palate with tons of dark fruits and a little peppercorn. Heavy tannins (8/10) and full bodied. Blue floral notes mixed in with black fruits. Long and lingering finish. Drink till 2037.

Aged for 22 months in 60% new French oak. Only 279 cases produced.

Love the intensity and length! A man’s wine if you don’t mind the non-pc description. I guess you could say a strong women’s wine as well 😂

Just delicious--dark fruits, scorched earth, & smoke. Beautiful structure, evolved for 2hrs in the glass. Thanks, Fernando.
