Tom Casagrande 
It’s been open only about 15 minutes but already the nose is delivering with complex scents of gravel, iodine, rich green tobacco, foresty underbrush, plums, a whiff of peach. In the mouth, it’s more youthful than the color indicates. Plenty of tannin (medium-soft) left to resolve. Lots of gravelly minerality and savory flavors. Fruit submerged for now but you can sense it lurking. Nice length. Very nice now but should be better in 3-5 years. UPDATE: After almost 2 hours of air, the fruit is showing up on the palate and the tannins are receding.

Wine 64, miserable wet day, asked for a wine to pick me up, to challenge me, and boy this recommendation ticked all the boxes. To me 2016 great vintage, smooth tannins, blackcurrant, with a hint of white pepper. Great wine
