Vinous - Josh Raynolds (92-94)
Deep ruby-red. Room-filling bouquet of bitter cherry, wild strawberry, sweet tobacco and charred meat is almost overwhelmingly pungent. Thick in the mouth and dense with extract; powerful, precise flavors of dark berries, licorice, chewing tobacco, mocha and floral pastilles. Lush, concentrated and very long on the finish, the fruit framed by sweet, buffered tannins adding focus. Offers great potential.Inc. TAX€622.27 -
