Tasting Notes
Vinous 89+
Medium red. Ripe, sweet aromas of black cherry and flowers. Juicy, spicy and firm-edged, with black cherry, licorice and spice flavors. A bit tightly wound today, and not currently showing the finesse or inner-mouth perfume it displayed from barrel last fall. Finishes with fine tannins and very good length. May well merit a 90-point rating with several years of bottle aging.
