(15.7 alcohol) Bright medium ruby. Distinctly candied, liqueur-like scents of dark berry pastille, licorice and violet, barely showing secondary scents today. Silky, hedonistic wine with incredible grain and depth and a compelling sappy quality to its powerful berry fruit. An incredible fruit bomb with huge dusty tannins and outstanding rising length. There’s something almost magically primary about this classically dry, super concentrated wine, which, like a number of top 2002s, seems to be in a state of suspended animation today. Drinking window 2020-2034. Stephen Tanzer, March 2017
