The wine bursts from the glass with a rush of black fruit, smoke, licorice, graphite and tar. All of the elements flow together gracefully towards the big, fleshy finish. There is plenty of tannin to support the fruit, suggesting the wine will drink well for a number of years. Simply put, it’s fabulous! Anticipated maturity: 2014-2029. Bid on it and put it away for a special occasion.
