"Showing beautiful and complex savory aromas of dark plum, fresh-picked blackberry, oil-cured Kalamata olives, dried mesquite, menthol, salted licorice, and rubbed thyme. It is quite burly on the palate, with inky essences of black plum, smoked meats, black olive, wild herbs, and an intense stony minerality. Shows a fine structure with great tension on the palate. It’s worth waiting a few years for this wine to settle into 15 years or so of great drinking." -Winemaker Notes
