Description

Score: 99 pts Robert Parker | 98 pts James Suckling

“Graphite and blueberries with notes of tar, dark earth and ink on the nose. Medium-bodied, with a compact and polished palate that has the texture of a tightly wound ball of fine silk. Very structured yet balanced. Give it four or five years to improve, but it will tempt you to try it now.” — James Suckling
