A ripe yet still fresh nose combines mostly secondary fruit with hints of sous-bois, earth and a whiff of spice. The rich, concentrated and broad-shouldered flavors possess solid power before culminating in beautifully complex and persistent finish. While this robust effort does flash a hint of warmth, overall there is good balance and for my taste, this has arrived at its apogee though it should easily hold for years to come. In a word, excellent.
Very intriguing and concentrated with mealy notes and some hints of cabbage leaves (more delicious than this sounds). Real excitement. Long, with layers.
