Darker and more complex than the traditional, offering ripe dark cherries and plums which are layered with spices, dark chocolate and a meaty character. On the palate this is beautifully textured, showing wonderful concentration and depth for the vintage. Ripe fruits and spices continue to linger on the long velvety finish. This Will be accessible upon release and should also evolve for close to a decade. (Best 2016-2025) - October, 2015 (JD)
