...delivers structured elegance around a wall of powerful concentration and intensity. Dried herb, cedar and crisp red fruit overlay a grip of thick tannin and toasted oak, ending in clove, black pepper and crushed rock.
...more red fruits (there are some blacker fruits as well) to go with more savory, leather, baking spice, chocolate, and loamy soil notes...full-bodied and concentrated, yet manages to stays beautifully balanced and light on its feet, with great tannins...a beautiful, classic Las Piedras...
...notes of tar and tapenade over a core of cassis, juicy blackberries and ripe plums, plus suggestions of pencil shavings and bay leaves. The medium to full-bodied palate is firm...delivering tons of energetic black fruit flavors and a good long finish.
...ripe blackberries and plums, sweet vanilla, coffee and smoke. Full-bodied and viscous with deeply ripe, almost sweetish fruit, reminiscent of blueberry jam. Very round and creamy with a warming sensation on the palate. Long finish.
