  Smoky aromas and wood flavors are still dominant in this wine even after five years. It does have some concentration and red-berry fruits, although the structure and the tannins are still firm. The wine should age further to allow the fruit to mature and shine. Drink from 2019.

  This is a closed, smoke-filled wine, and its tannins and toasty wood character currently dominate, which gives it a bitter edge. It has richness, with hints of juicy fruit that sit under the structure. Give it at least six years.
