"A spicy, pure and wonderfully elegant nose offers up plenty of floral character along with a plenitude of spice elements on the mostly red berry fruit scents that remain quite primary, which is not surprisingly given the large format bottling. There is a fine sense of vibrancy to the intensely mineral-driven middle weight flavors that possess solid mid-palate concentration as well as impeccably good balance on the balanced and Zen-like finale. This is not an especially big wine but I very much like the sense of harmony. Note that it will need plenty of time in bottle to reach its apogee . . ."
