“…Utterly gorgeous as soon as you smell it, with perfumed aromas ... Sipping this reveals a palate of stunning elegance, with wonderful sweet tannins framing flavors of warm figs, dark berries, a hint of black plums, savory Middle Eastern spices, cedar, graphite that rings through the finish, and high-cacao chocolate. Now or in 25 years, this is a winner.”
