Score 94/100 · Drink 2023-2032, Josh Raynolds, Nov 2019
Dark shimmering red. Deep-pitched, smoke- and spice-accented dark berry, cherry-vanilla, floral pastille and cola scents are energized by a zesty mineral topnote. Weighty yet lively, showing sharp delineation and lift to the sweet black raspberry, cherry preserve, rose pastille and spicecake flavors, which tighten up slowly on the back half. Shows serious power and spicy cut on an impressively long, smooth finish that shows just a trace of velvety tannins.
