Dense waves of dark fruit, leather and roasted herbs dominate this powerful expression. The wine shows impressive concentration and flavor saturation, but the sheer weight overwhelms any sense of grace or lift. Extracted and muscular, it favors brute force over the refined elegance this site typically delivers.
