Tasting Notes

This is backward and reserved to the point of being taciturn and even aggressive swirling coaxes little from the glass save for glimpses of an intensely sauvage and earthy red berry suffused nose that leads to intensely stony, cool and austere impressively scaled flavors are carved from a block of stone while culminating in a terrifically long, intense and palate staining finish. This is beyond primary and it's classically built and proportioned but be prepared to put it in the cellar and forget it's there for a long while to come.
