Product Highlights
The intense ruby red color is impenetrable by light. The bouquet showcases bramble jelly, black pepper, vegetal components, cocoa, coffee, a hint of balsamic and pipe tobacco. The palate is fresh but the tannins are ready for aging. The sweet finish and unforgettable length make it the perfect partner for structured dishes, red meat and game.

Expert Reviews
A dark and dense red, featuring a fine, tight mesh of firm and chalky tannins, with a weave of black cherry compote, fig cake, medicinal herbs, tarry earth and smoke. It's hard to find this wine's full expression today, even with advance decanting; however, it seems to have all the components in equal measure, suggesting cellaring will allow this to shine brighter.
