Good dark red. Scented aromas of dark raspberry, mocha, spices, pepper and dried herbs. Moderately sweet, fine-grained and thick, with currant, darker fruit and spices flavors joined by a note of dark chocolate that communicates the vintage. Finishes with unctuous tannins and slowly building length. As with a few of the other 2015s at this address, the tannins are more harmonious than usual owing to the greater mid-palate density of the '15 vintage.
