About

Rating:

92

"Just a hint of ripe apricot is ready to appear. The rest of the fruit remains locked in a rich but concentrated midpalate where a pleasantly bitter phenolic grip gives extra character. Ripe but spiky acid forms a straight backbone and makes this a wine worth waiting for. Drink as of 2016. -A.K."
