a fine bead of acidity and good weight

There is outstanding volume to the big-bodied and overtly muscular flavors that coat the palate with dry extract while delivering excellent length on the dusty and built-to-age finish

I suspect that it is again the abundant gas

There is excellent richness to the concentrated and beautifully textured broad-shouldered flavors that possess focused power and a subtle minerality that really comes up on the youthfully austere and strikingly long finish

This well-balanced effort should amply reward mid to even longer-term cellaring though 12 to 15 years should see it at its best
