A cooler, later and mellower vintage that has a more reticent nose with attractive, fragrant spices, fresh-baked pastry and an array of dark cherries and red plums, as well as some tarry notes. The palate has a big, rich and intense fruit presence with such lusciously layered, dark-plum flavors. Spicy oak runs bold on the finish. A big wine. Try from 2025 and for two decades after that.
