Aromas of black cherry marinated in spirits, leather, underbrush, licorice and black pepper unfold in the glass of this sleek, powerfully structured wine. The glossy palate doles out mature black plum, blackberry, clove, nutmeg, grilled herb and mocha while a licorice note closes the lingering finish. It’s still young and tightly wound with an assertive, tannic backbone. Drink 2018–2030.
