25 Jan 2012: Garnet-ruby core. A sophisticated wine marked by finesse and elegant structure, subtle complexity of primary just turning secondary, raspberry, dark cherry, tea leaves, mushroom and undergrowth with mineral nuances. Very 3-dimensional, rounded mouthfeel, and a long-lasting finish with hints of sweet fruit. The fine tannin not fully integrated, and there is a good level of acidity. This is drinking well today, with food, and has the material to last a couple more decades. Totally indulging! 18.5/20
