Scores

97/100

Powerfully expressed and immediately appealing, the wine shows blackberry, mulberry, Asian spice and cedar characters on the nose. The palate is equally satisfying with awesome weight and richly textured mouthfeel, splendidly structured by loads of fine tannins, making it sturdy and opulent simultaneously. At its best: now to 2038
