This bottle was opened several hours prior to service and enjoyed over the course of a couple of days. The 2021 pours a deep purple color with an opaque core; medium+ viscosity with significant staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of ripe dark fruit: crème de cassis, blackberry, plum, tobacco, purple flowers, vanilla and baking spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+ the texture is silky. This is a big, bold, well made and all about dat fruit. Drink now with patience through 2036. — 9 months ago

Deep garnet color. Aromas of plum, cherry cordials, jasmine tea and clove. Amazing blue and black fruit on the palate, milk chocolate and baking spices on the finish. Superb!
