perfume of dark berries, fig, baking spices & tobacco ~ the dark berry flavors lean a touch jammy but are in check by a quick pop of crunchy red fruit, some Asian spices, and a hint of Mediterranean herbs ~ plush mouthfeel w soft dry finish ~ lovely #SuperTuscan to follow next 15 yrs!

Earthy rich deep red and black berries, strong but well integrated tannins, tea, walnuts, long finish. Acidity. I think there is a bit of vanilla in the cocoa on the tail but my wife said find someone who will confirm that because she couldn’t. This has many years to go before prime time. Unfortunately only opened an hour before we drank it, because, whoa, towards the end of dinner we were flying. All early notes above are suspect.

Sous bois and forrest floor on the nose gives way to a nicely balanced and integrated Cabernet. Tannic structure was still present but did not distract from our enjoyment of this wine.
