Opaque dark red color. Full bodied. Complex red fruit and earth flavors. Enough tannins to provide structure but not dominant. Excellent in all respects. Will age well for many more years, but it’s top notch right now.

First from the case and this is drinking beautifully, even if rather young and vigourous. Enormous perfume on the nose, redolent of cassis and blackcurrent leaf, with flecks of graphite and cedar. The fruit is deep and pure, but this is elegant, stylish, and not over the top. The tannins are relatively integrated, though this definitely will improve. Give it a long decant in the meantime.

Had with rack of lamb. Well made. Aromas of sweet black and red fruits, some herbaceous notes as well. Pretty simple. In the mouth, the wine is full bodied, supple. Bright fruit acidity, dense in the mouth, but not too tannic at all. Loads of black fruit, with a creamy cassis finish. I think this wine is just much too young.

Delightful even if still young. Gorgeous floral nose with a memorable mineral/graphite streak on the palate.
