February 2018 (Vintage 2013)

A fragrant, elegant style, featuring floral, berry, eucalyptus and tobacco aromas and flavors. Shows fine intensity, with harmony and a long, fruit-, underbrush- and mineral-tinged aftertaste. Best from 2021 through 2043. 500 cases made, 90 cases imported

September 2018 (Vintage 2013)
