Glass-staining ruby. Powerful, oak-tinged black currant, cherry, candied rose, pipe tobacco and mocha scents are accompanied by succulent herb and mineral flourishes. Sappy and seamless on the palate, offering deeply concentrated but energetic bitter cherry, dark berry liqueur, vanilla and licorice flavors that unfurl slowly through the midpalate. Youthful but well-knit tannins frame an extremely long, sweet finish that features resonating spice, mineral and floral notes. The interplay of power and finesse here is quite marvelous.

Showed the restraint of a teenage schoolboy and opened this mag too early. A lot of years of development still to come. Was very good now though.

Great Thanksgiving day mag. Bright red fruit on the nose and palette. Very food friendly.
