An elaborate wine—it's broodingly closed and dry, yet it offers tantalizing glimpses of what it could become. As acidic and tannic as it is, it dazzles with complexity, showing notes of blackberries and cherries, then licorice and cola, then smoked meats, sautéed mushrooms and spices. A great success, it should begin to mellow by 2015.
