More poised and elegant than I recall, but in a good way. A good dose of oak but it takes it well as it already seems fairly well integrated.

One of the best I've had. Obviously needs time, but a double decant works nicely. Artist Series label

Spice and vanilla oak driven aroma but with well layered black figs and delicate black cherries. There is definately sense of new wood vanilla and aromas are going around here.
Med p body, med p acid, lots of mushroom clay soil earthiness.
Mushroom powder, clay, dust, mineral bitterness on the end. Firm and dry tannins on the back bone.
Can be better with grilled mushroom, wagyu beef burger. Definitely not for salmon or fish, need some good butter sauce or rich jus to tone down this firm wood tannin.

Fills in the air with scents of wood and berries, powerful but elegant, so that you feel the presence. Great taste and after taste )
