Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Deep and clear in color, and very solid smelling; the prune and mineral aromas form the base, with woodsy notes offering complexity. The palate is chiseled and juicy, with plum, berry, tobacco and espresso flavors. Best to drink now. Only 600 cases made; 125 imported.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
From 80-year-old vines planted on steep slopes, this shows an early blast of buttery oak, but underneath there’s mineral, coffee, lemon peel and potent fruit. Power and tightness define the palate, which is also intensely mineral as it teeters on the border of overoaked and leathery.
