Allen Meadows - Score: 92-95 (2022 January)

A perfumed and exceptionally pretty and spicy nose freely offers up its array of red currant, exotic tea, sandalwood and hoisin. There is terrific intensity to the tautly muscular, sappy and powerful big-bodied flavors that exude evident minerality on the impressively long, balanced and very much built-to-age finale. Patience again strongly advised. Excellent.
