Fruit for this wine comes from a single block, planted in 1985. A hundred percent varietal, it's exuberant, offering aromas of roasted coffee bean, cedar, raspberry, graphite and black cherry. The palate is big. It's a burly beast of a wine, chock-full of dark-fruit flavors, firm tannins and plentiful spices. The flavors are seamless. The finish lengthy. It's near unapproachable now. Don't touch this until after 2028. Truly. But it will be glorious with significant time in the cellar.
