A lovely nose, rich, opulent with notes of sweet black fruits. The palate is full, fleshy with sweet tannins. From mid-palate onwards alcohol levels (15.5% Vol.) take over. Disappointing considering a promising start.

Черные ягоды, шоколад, ваниль, аккуратные приятные танины, слишком молодо, но сильно. Отличная текстура, долгое ягодное послевкусие.

This wine is a monster. When it opened, it had a lot of things to figure out, but did within 15 minutes. The wine was a lot of fig, some prune, a little mushroom both on the nose and on the palate with a very brief finish. This wine then vaulted to a dark mature red cherry wine on the front with good acidity, some oregano in the middle but a lot of dark fruit structure. The finish of this wine was increasingly tannic. Gave me some kind of sweetness in the middle to the finish. Kept on getting more youthful until about two hours when it just stayed the way it was. Nice wine. Has a crazy amount of life left. At least 10 years more.
