Explosive black fruit and crushed graphite define this powerhouse from Diamond Mountain's volcanic slopes. Dense and muscular, yet there's an elegant precision to the tannin structure that elevates it beyond mere power. The mineral backbone cuts through layers of cassis and dark spice, creating remarkable tension. Needs time to fully integrate. Drink 2026-2042.
