Rich, dark fruit still with a nice backbone of tannin that is now more silky in texture. Some glycerin. A nice, long, smooth finish. More elegant in style, but by no means restrained. A very nice wine in a very good place right now. 96 points. ![[thumbs-up.gif]](/uploads/db3686/original/2X/f/f84c5acc11486ee4baba6dee6cf61dbd133abb18.gif "[thumbs-up.gif]"){kind=small}
