A tad muscular but offers abundant spiced chocolate notes up front, which fold into a rich and fleshy core of ripe berry and plum. Offers irony mineral and herb twinges, all while echoing back to the opening flavors and slightly chewy tannins. Very complete. Drink now through 2030. 750 cases imported.
