The best I've had so far from this vintage and I've had a few. Dark ruby with purple hues. Closed nose at this stage. Beautiful forward black fruit....very fresh and pure, perfectly balanced. Concentrated with a viscous texture and great legs in the glass. This bottling shows good spice and hints of cloves and earth but the reason to buy some is the balance and purity. 13.5%Alc/vol. $17.99.
