  Deep inky opaque purple with an intense aromatic bouquet, showing raw meat, black pepper, charcoal, eucalytus and freshly turned soil. Over the course of the meal, the wine begins disrobe, evoking more floral characteristics behind dark earthy spices and rich dark cooked cherry. In the mouth, think silk with tannins so incredibly fine they're almost nonexistent. In the mouth, the raw meat still takes the primary note but is supported by several layers dark forest berries, black licorice and smoke. If I had a grand to spend on a case of 12, I would in a heartbeat. 5/5

  Intense deep purple color with a nose that draws me back throughout our meal. Black earth, bacon fat, raw meat, clove, black pepper and smoke all on the first whiff. Amazing complexity. Barnyard, and floral notes dance in and out as it develops and with time dark black fruits and vanilla make an appearance too. Lush in the in the mouth, and juicy with a good acidity and SUPER fine tannins, so silky that you almost don't notice them. Black raspberry, currents, anise and tobacco all show in the mouth with a light wood note here and there. Really a complete wine with so much to offer. I wish I had all day to sip it.  more
