"Intense and compacted, hard to judge because it's closed . . . offering layers of exotic Oriental spices and toasted oak, with a floral, violet and licorice character. Concentration is impressive in this full-bodied, very long wine, which almost burns the palate from all that intensity, especially on the hot-fuse kind of finish"
