Firm reduction flattens the nose though there is a lovely sense of both freshness and tension to the colossally constituted flavors that drench the palate with sap that once again renders the notably firm tannic spine all but invisible for the moment on the impressively persistent if slightly warm finish. I suspect that in time the structure will become more apparent but this is one concentrated, indeed massive GE, that isn't elegant but does avoid rusticity.
Robust, vibrant red fruit nose, with discreet oak supporting. Lean attack, with both weight of fruit and elegance, and there's a fine texture thanks to the ripe tannins. Lifted and pure, this is no heavyweight, but it is polished, stylish, and long.
