"This is a delicious wine with a nice balance of ample structure, persistent acidity and a lovely aged quality still lifted by freshness and a long finish. There is such a core of power and density here but no aggressiveness and plenty of focus. Notes of mushroom and spice, full of garrigue and notes of dark chocolate. A lovely wine with still plenty of life left in the bottle."
