Nice complexity to a peppery nose, sweet dark berries, fragrant, nice earth, hints of oak.
Elegant smoothness, light acid, mellowed tannins, round dark berry fruits, black pepper, spice, no edges, good terroir.
Nice length and flavor. [90]

Similar notes as this wine is really coming into its own.

Nice pairing this time with Pot Roast...
