Darker and a touch more stewy than the winery’s less pricey old-vines effort. Airing loosens it up, but throughout it’s a big, stewy wine with extracted blackberry and coffee cake flavors. The finish is equally on the rich side, with swirling toffee and coffee afternotes. It’s a big wine with heft but also some chunkiness.
