"Bright violet color. An explosively perfumed bouquet evokes an array of ripe red and dark berry, floral pastille and incense scents, along with suggestions of cola, mocha and smoky minerals. Conveys a compelling blend of richness and vivacity on the palate, offering deeply concentrated black raspberry, cherry liqueur, spicecake and candied lavender flavors that spread out on the back half. Showy but also impeccably balanced, finishing with slowly arriving velvety tannins and remarkable clarity and cling. A star of this superb vintage, which isn't short of standout wines."
