Dark purple color with bouquet of tar, bacon fat, spice, blackberry compote, black plum, and scorched earth. There are also hints of floral tones. The aromatic complexity follows through on the palate with well delineated flavors of blackberry, black raspberry, black olive, espresso, bacon fat, black pepper, dark chocolate, leather, cigar tobacco, and garrigue. The very long finish echoes tones of earth, bacon fat, and cigar tobacco. Impressive structure with exquisite balance, the wine will continue to improve for the next 8-10 years and should drink well for the next 15-20 years.
