Tasting notes
The 2010 Prima has backed off the new oak in an intelligent manner and now seems like a denser, slightly fuller, medium-bodied wine with more impact and textural pleasure on the palate. The Prima should drink well for 3-4 years. Both cuvees from this well-run estate merit attention.

Black. Luscious and obviously very well cared for. Dense, tarry and very tight – but not too sweet nor overripe not too alcoholic, just tightly wound, should come right eventually. (JR)
