Powerful, concentrated, ripe, this wine is a big boy, yet manages to maintain a balancing minerality

Popped and poured so no real aeration. Tannins dominate the fruit at this point so not very enjoyable. Seems to have the goods to improve with time. This was a 375 ml so i wonder how long I will have to wait on my 750s and magnums...
