description: Having now tasted this wine on three separate occasions, I'm certain it will continue to improve in the bottle, but how stingy my current rating will ultimately seem is an open question. From tank prior to bottling, it was a rich, custardy, vibrant wine that I would have rated in the low 90s. Tasted blind after bottling, I've not yet found that same level of quality, but my ratings have climbed from low-mid 80s (back in the early part of this year) to high 80s now, as the wine seems to be regaining some of its rich, velvety texture to help balance its formidable acidity. Worth trying again in another year or two. Imported by Wilson Daniels Ltd.
