Firm reduction dominates the nose at present. More positively, the sleek, delicious and generously proportioned broad-shouldered flavors possess both outstanding concentration and power before culminating in a robust, driving and strikingly persistent bitter fruit pit-inflected finish. This too is a wine to buy and forget as the very firm core of ripe tannins makes unmistakably clear. In short, this is excellent.
