2017 Coleccion Privada

Largely in the same style, yet slightly more closed, the 2017 Colección Privada offers up a rich, decadent nose of vanilla-laced black fruits, tobacco, violets, and toasted spices. It opens up with air and offers more spice as well as a beautiful purity in its darker, almost blue fruits. It's not quite as dense as the 2016 yet is still medium to full-bodied and has a beautiful elegance, silky tannins, and a great finish. It's going to evolve for 10-15 years.
