Tasting Notes

**Note: from vines averaging between 60 and 70 years of age**
Here too there is a touch of wood spice to the compositionally similar if slightly riper and more complex nose. There is excellent underlying tension to the delicious and solidly complex flavors that possess very ripe if firm tannins that impart a slightly chewy texture to the serious but not particularly rustic finish. Note there is a trace of backend dryness that my score assumes is due to the recent bottling as the underlying phenolics appear to be quite ripe.
