"A wine of great stature, it is rich and full-bodied on the palate. With its ripe tannins and black plum aromas, it is dense and loaded with beautiful, rounded flavors. The texture is silky and promises excellent aging potential." (Wine Enthusiast 2015 - Roger Voss)

Note and opinion by Mr. OLIVIER M. Published on 04/24/2020

This full-bodied wine has great energy. A little too extracted for my taste, leaving a slight dryness on the finish, but it's still a beautiful wine...
