More earth and mushroom. Higher toned fruits, border-line tart. Tastes SUPER young. I hope I get to taste this wine again in 10 years

Profound. Damp earth & truffle. Wild blue fruits & Darjeeling tea. Espresso components dominate the finish. 2006

In the years since its release it has loosened up but still has a ton of baby fat. Check in again in 10 years of you can keep your hands off of it

Starting to be more approachable- after about an hour open silky fruit along with all the classic balsamic notes. Long life ahead- super solid
