(91 Points) --- (Burghound)
This is an aromatically restrained wine to this point with its reticent array of mostly red berry liqueur-like nose that exhibits background nuances of tobacco and menthol. There is first-rate mid-palate density to the round and suave, even opulent, flavors that coat the palate with dry extract, all wrapped in a velvety and solidly complex finish. This is quite firmly structured and while all of the sappy extract presently buffers the tannic spine, this should easily reward up to a decade of cellaring. In sum this is one of the more robust wines in the range with plenty of power and punch. *Outstanding* Review Date: 04/2016
