Tasting Notes
Pure gold and another masterpiece from this estate... a heavenly bouquet of red and black currants, truffly earth, iron, espresso, and tobacco leaf. With incredible purity of fruit, full-bodied richness, and ultra-fine tannins, it's a deep, pure, layered 2020 that will need 5-7 years of bottle age but will be legendary. - Score 99 - Jeb Dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com, February 2023
Serving Suggestions
Pairs best with grilled or roasted red meats or rich, hearty dishes with truffle or mushroom based sauces. Also pairs well alongside hard mature cheese like aged Cheddar or Comté.
