Score 95/100 · Drink 2036-2040, Allen Meadows, Burghound
An exceptionally floral and herbal tea-suffused nose freely offers up notes of black raspberry, hoisin, soy and sandalwood. The caressing and elegant yet impressively intense flavors that are tautly muscular while offering evident salinity on the beautifully lengthy finish. This poised effort isn’t especially dense, but it is imposingly structured and like the Chambertin, a wine that is constructed to last for decades. 2039+
