95 Points

Monday, May 13, 2024 - Opened alongside a Vilafonte M 2011

Pop n pour to test the waters. Not decanted and drink immediately over the next hour. A lot of googling, the exact blend not known.

Ruby with a purple hue, which did fade with time open. Blackfruited, blackberries, blackcurrant, black cherries and a bit of liqourice. Prettiness to this, perhaps Petite Verdot and violet and lilac. Very faint vegetal notes, perhaps tomato leaf at best. Great structure and presence, medium + finish. Great fruit and great structure. Super enjoyable.
