The alcohol certainly gives the wine richness, but it manages to sustain it well, with superripe black plum and damson flavors, dusty tannins and a powerful texture that rolls richly around the mouth. It leaves a sweet and juicy aftertaste like old-style Rioja.

Big and firm, the tannins dark and dominant, this is a wine in transition from fruity to mature. The structure, spice, dried fruits and chocolate is emerging at the moment. Give it 2–3 years for its impressive character to open.

Soft, dusty tannins balance a wine that is full of the ripest fruit. It has power, but gentle power, with rounded corners and a texture that is dense, never hard. The fruits are ripe plums, perhaps lacking final freshness.
