• Wine Access Tasting Note

  Dark red core with delicately fading rim. The aromas of dried violets and pink flowers are up-front and bold. As the wine opens, it gives more blackberry and plum, all intense and defined. The pristine fruit continues on the palate, accompanied by graphite, tobacco, and leather. There is a polishd power that speaks to the long life ahead for this wine. The mouthfeel is grand and full, with perfectly refined tannins. The lingering finish offers more florals and dried herbs, plus touches of orange peel and minerals. Waves of flavor give this wine endless complexity. Drink now–2040.

  James Suckling

  This was phenomenal from barrel and remains so. The aromas are spellbinding. It smells like a bouquet of pink roses and then goes to currants, berries and citrus. Full body, with wonderfully refined tannins. It starts discretely and then grows to different levels and dimensions like a slow but big high tide. The texture is so beautiful.
