“Deep, dark and spicy with aromas of black and red currants, graphite, potpourri, dried flowers, herbs and wet river stones. The palate is full-bodied, offering generous texture, fine-grained tannins and a long, mouthwatering finish. Great tension and purity matched by plenty of generosity. Drink or hold.”

“This is well-realized, with a solidly ripe core of boysenberry and blackberry pâte de fruit that’s dense yet expressive, while licorice snap, violet, cast iron and menthol notes run through. Solidly grippy, with the vintage’s succulence driving the finish. Best from 2027 through 2038. ”
