92/100 vinous
'Opaque ruby. Highly perfumed aromas of dark berry preserves, gingerbread, licorice and white pepper, with an assertive floral quality. Broad, palate-staining black raspberry and boysenberry flavors are lifted by a tangy mineral note and complicated by violet and Asian spices. Brightens up with aeration, ultimately offering an intriguing blend of richness and vivacity. The long, sappy finish echoes the floral and spice notes and shows excellent clarity.'
(Josh Raynolds, vinous.com)
A deep, intense reddish-violet colour. The nose offers aromas of spice and black fruit intermingled with notes of black pepper, tobacco, and roasted red pepper, resulting in a highly complex blend. The palate unfolds with subtle notes of truffle, cocoa, and toasted coffee accompanied by smooth, voluminous tannins, giving this wine a great structure that fills the palate, creating a beautiful balance of fruit and oak. A wine with great depth and an incredible, prolonged finish.
