Sporting one of the best labels out there (it literally has a flying pig on it) I love its texture, and it's incredibly pure, refined, and seamless, with medium to full bodied richness as well as a Bordeaux-like nose of blackcurrants, mulled cherries, sandalwood, leafy herbs, sweet earth, and hints of charcoal. It has some upfront appeal, yet the tannins emerge with time in the glass, and this beauty warrants 3-5 years in the cellar. It's going to have 20-25+ years of prime drinking. It's a stunning wine and matches the 2018 as one of the finest vintages out there. —Jeb Dunnuck

A nose of juicy red and black fruit, accented by notes of cured meat, sweet paprika and toasted thyme. Medium-bodied with silky tannins. Succulent fruit with notes of vanilla, grated nutmeg and cardamom. Drink or hold. —James Suckling
