A beast. A bit too much. Showing ripeness of vintage. It’s delicious though. Much better day 2. Upped rating.

2018: Young but lots of inky purple fruit with good concentration. Tannins are well-integrated for such a young wine but will need time to become more than just fruit. Some mineral backing gives some hope for some more funky Rotie flavors but will take some years. $56? At VR.
