". . . marvelous aromatic and flavor complexity, and is beautifully focused and delineated. The perfumed nose offers up notes of plums and cherries, fresh nutmeg, a bit of cocoa powder, delicate game tones, a lovely base of minerals, cinnamon and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is medium-full, round and velvety, with a lovely core of sweet fruit, fine depth, and lovely length on the silky finish . . . . it is a fine, fine bottle that will add yet another layer of complexity with a few more years bottle age."
