This exceedingly delightful wine shows wonderful richness and depth. Having a deep and inky core, this wine begins with aromatics of blackberry jam, anise, spicebox, pipe tobacco with sandalwood. There are flavors of blackberry pie, creosote, roasted figs, mocha and a graphite edge. Lithe and delicious, with moderate tannins and a gorgeous mouthfeel, this great wine will age gracefully into the next decade. (Best 2016-2028) - October, 2016 (OB)
