Deepish red colored, a dense perfumed nose, with leather, rum-soaked plums, and some incense. Dark fruits with a lush sweet denseness to it, but with hints of sauvagery to keep it interesting. Despite being somewhat low in acid, the thickness and balance of this would suggest it could be kept another 5-7 years. The only note of caution might be a slight medicinal quality that becomes apparent with airing on the finish. Very well made. A solid A-/90.
