Nose

The aromatics include herbal notes, pencil lead, espresso, black currants and blackberry liqueur. - Jay Miller, The Wine Advocate

Palate

This is followed by a plush wine with big-time depth and concentration, ripe black fruit flavors, and, amazingly, a sense of elegance. The 45+ second finish is sweet and pure. The tannins are well concealed which will permit this wine to provide pleasure through 2030. - Jay Miller, The Wine Advocate
