Notes of menthol and wood surround the ripe but cool aromas of plum liqueur, warm earth and soft game wisps. The big-bodied, succulent and decidedly rounded flavors possess a caressing mid-palate that contrasts with the firm, serious and powerful finish where a prominent tannic spine shapes it. This will need at least some patience and should amply reward 12 to 15 years of it.
