Unbelievable!!! Super inky in the glass, incredibly intense nose of dark fruits with a touch of graphite and the most unreal silkiness on the mouth - it almost coats the mouth (in a good way). Intensely layered with black fruits and cassis on the palate and a finish that goes on an on. Decanted for 4 hours and tannins were soft. This is an infant (but still SO good now) - am glad to have a few bottles to lay down.
