...this is arguably the best and the best balanced...shows fine acidity and lush texture, the best concentration and the freshest fruit in the vertical to go with the big tannins...it adds wonderful complexity. It is intriguing and intellectual... Focused, penetrating and powerful...

Sappy and impressively concentrated, with mouthfilling cherry and dark berry flavors coating the palate and completely absorbing the thick, chewy tannins...the strength of material is impressive.
