"This also plays right on the edge of reduction though it's nothing that a short stay in a decanter shouldn't cure if you're tempted to try a bottle in its youth. The delicious and solidly concentrated middle weight flavors possess plenty of volume as well as vibrancy, all wrapped in a robust, firmly structured and impressively complex and lingering finale. As is almost always the case with classic examples of Shea, this is a bold and powerful effort that will definitely require time before it's ready for prime time. Worth considering."
