Tasting Notes

A dense, brooding red, this offers plenty of dark fruit, earth, mineral, spice and smoke flavors. The tannins set the pace for now, yet there is depth and complexity, as well as a vibrant core. Builds to a long, stony, meaty finish, showing great energy and persistence. Best from 2024 through 2045.

Score: 97

Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator Maturity: 2024-2045 12 December 2018

Bright, dark red. Wild yet precise nose combines aromas of musky small red berries, dried flowers and game. Dense, sappy and thick but gentle too, offering outstanding intensity to its fine-grained flavors of purple fruits, flowers and animal fur. There's a juicy delicacy here in the style of the vintage's best examples. Spreads out to dust the palate on the very pure, rising finish, leaving behind a distinctly dark impression of blackberry and boysenberry.

Score: 92 - 95
