Fantastic CDR style of wine. it has everything in it u could expect, big fruit with minerality character, earthiness, hm:)
Totally agree. Powerful mouth feel and fleshy tannins are the expressive result of more than 5 years maturation. Inevitably and nicely warming due to the higher alcohol. Magical Experience indeed.
