"This beauty is finally beginning to display some development as the perfumed and complex nose mixes both primary and secondary earthy red berry fruit, underbrush and a touch of animale character. The generous and quite fleshy medium-bodied flavors possess excellent volume as well as buckets of dry extract that almost render the firm and ripe tannins invisible on the massively long finish. Wow, this is a stunner of a wine with still plenty of upside potential remaining though with air this could be approached with pleasure. Tasted on multiple occasions with consistent results."
