Layers of rich and wonderful fruit. Intense aromas of blackberry, tobacco, mineral, dried mushroom. Full-bodied, with big, velvety tannins...
Powerfully concentrated, dense and sweet, lifted by notes of spice, licorice and menthol. Offers the precision of the top '99s, and finishes very long, with strong but even tannins.
...intensely spicy on the nose...long, focused, and concentrated palate reveals plenty of extract and depth, abundant vanilla, cedar, and cloves...
Rich, gamey, leathery aromas; concentrated, tannic and vigorous, with power and persistence more than finesse. 2008–2015.
