I never rate friends wines so take the 9.0 as a place holder score but.. very pretty. Seamless. Not about absolute power, more (and god I hate the term) old school style. Delicious now but my other 2 will not be opened for a while.

Very floral nose of rose, strawberry, lilac, overripe raspberry, but not soggy, velvet and just a hint of cold charcoal. Deep burgundy with hints of purple to the edges, medium bodied, with slightly grippy tannins. Palate features ripe, deep red fruits, with notes of black olives, plums, blackberry and rose petal, with a long finish with notes of violet flowers and hints of tobacco smoke in the back of the throat. Three cheers for Kiko!

Aging gracefully and will continue to do so. Black fruits, blueberry, blackberry, plum, vanilla, linearity and precision with a plush silky mouthfeel that completely coats the palate.

Spectacular. Full bodied. Well balanced. Soft fruits. Hint of cotton candy. Love it.
