"The nose just explodes out of the glass, a chocolaty, plumy, spicy array of complex wild fruits that just envelop you. On the palate the wine is bold, dramatic, lots of mid palate structure, like someone with powerful, muscular shoulders, a real depth of flavor flows from the chocolaty, plumy nose to more, herb, leather, a taste of the earth but finish with more ripe, yet very focused and structured plumy fruit. The wine's powerful structure leaves a dramatic presence in the finish that lingers, wistfully behind the columns of power. Drink now with a couple of hours in a decanter or age, it will shoulder another 7-10 years easily. (Greg St.Clair, K&L Italian buyer)"
