Not decanted. Consumed over 2 days. For me, less impressive than the 2009 vintage. On the first day the acidity was too high. On the second day much better, also the acidity less dominant. I think the wine has a lot of potential and will be very good already in 3-5 years. 90+ pts. at the moment.

Surprisingly fruit forward: raspberry, strawberry jam, a little grapey. Almost an Aussi-style eucalyptus/mint note on the midpalate. Medium tannin, medium acid. Red fruits and olive on the palate. This will be a nice early drinker.

Smoke, espresso, ripe, juicy red fruits come along with soft, silky, textures and a lively, fresh, sweet red berry, spice, earth and mocha filled finish. Give it just a few years and it will be even better!
