Description

A densely fruited, ripe and exuberantly fresh nose offers up notes of cassis, plum, dark raspberry and a variety of spice nuances. The impressively concentrated broad-shouldered flavors possess a plush yet reasonably defined mouthfeel before culminating in a driving, focused and very powerful finish that seems to go on and on.

This is a big wine where the abundant dry extract presently largely hides the firm core of supporting tannins but make no mistake, this will need plenty of time to reach its apogee.
