Shows great depth of color with a brilliant, nuanced ruby red hue with a slightly iridescent character on the edges that indicates a long aging potential. Explosive nose with mixed berry fruit, as well as dried apricots with minerality and a slightly truffled nose. Great balance and texture. Tannins are fleshy yet very well integrated.
There's a spicy overlay to the tangy white pepper, savory spices, dried plums, dried grapefruit and licorice notes. Pretty complex and well balanced, with linear savory fruit and a lengthy finish. Very firm and fine-boned tannins. James Suckliing
