" Opaque with inky black, grainy rim. Intense nose with white pepper and dark, ripe berry fruit. Red, ripe plum, mulberry and dark cherry with lavender and dark rose making for great complexity. Somewhat stern entry with some tough tannins. Then the ripe berry fruit blossoms and fills the mouth while plum, prune and pepper do the rest. Great balance and super texture. Focussed and concentrated with huge development potential. "
