AJ | Dark, clear black-red. Sweet and unctuous, mushroomy -- with some new oak? Touch of vanilla sweetness occluding the fruit somewhat. Lavish, sweet-edged and rather assertive, though with impressive concentration. A showy wine but for me just a little indigestible. Time may heal. Drink Dates: 2025 - 2035. 87
BB | Deep garnet to pink. Mature, black and red fruits, generous nose with plums, red and black cherries, cedar wood and oriental spices. Full body palate balanced by the fine tannins and exuberant acidity. long yet touch rustic finish. Drink Dates: 2026 - 2035. 93
