A real gem from the 2016 vintage. Stunningly rich, full-bodied, with an unctuous texture, loads of crème de cassis, licorice, and subtle background oak. The wine is approachable now and will evolve over 10-15 years. This wine is soft and feminine and everlasting. The palate mirrors the nose, and the soft acidity and silky voluptuousness let the finish linger for some time.
