Very rich, earthy, dense aromas of marvelous complexity lead to intense, big, robust, deep flavors underpinned by solid tannic structure and excellent length. This is a very big wine that has not entirely found its stride yet but everything is in place to permit this to have a long, graceful future."(90pts BH) Provenance: From Europe with Love: Our continental gentleman, a collector of extraordinary taste and legendary generosity, returns with 100+ selections of ancient and modern wonders.
