It boasts a dense purple hue to go with a sensational, fullbodied, multi-layered array of red and black currants, toasted spice, peppery garrigue, and new leather-like aromas and flavors. This warrants 4-6 years of bottle age and will be incredibly long-lived. Is this even better than the 2001 and 2016?
