Pale garnet with enticing aromatics of dried cherry, charcuterie and wet earth. Two decades have brought elegant refinement to what was likely a robust youth. The palate shows graceful evolution with polished tannins and earthy complexity. Truffle and smoke linger on the finish. Has another five years of drinking pleasure ahead.
