Product details
Bright medium ruby. Pungent aromas of smoky spicy oak black raspberry blackberry bitter chocolate graphite and cinnamon. Very concentrated but less expansive than the '99; dense and supple but seems to be going into a shell. A more muscular austere style; the tannins coat the teeth and the insides of the cheek. This will require patience but should make an excellent bottle.
