Tasting Notes

**Note: made from the first bunch on each fruiting cane and Labet noted that it was vinified with no sulfur**
Moderate wood sets off the overtly floral-inflected aromas of herbal tea, earth and liqueur-like black raspberry that are laced with plenty of spice hints. There is superb density to the opulent and lavishly rich broad-shouldered flavors that are focused and extraordinarily powerful and intense, all wrapped in a balanced and immensely persistent finish. What is so impressive about this wine is how it carries its power and weight so effortlessly and this should age for gracefully for decades though it should actually be approachable after only 10 to 12 years.
