This was solid; had a couple oak hints initially, but good dark fruit and spice underlying; still structured and not really seemingly fully in flow yet; I'd hold this a few more years.

Really tasty bottle; super fresh with red currant and cranberry alongside floral notes; with some time and air you start to get some forest floor and other savory development, but it still has a lovely red fruited core. Really quite good for a 2013

First sample of this producer; needs more time, but not undrinkable with air; the nose starts out very savory with tar, forest floor, and mint notes; with air the red berry fruits start to emerge and it continues to open over 3 hours. Probably should have decanted. The balance is quite nice with well judged acidity and the alcohol and tannins all singing in harmony. Will definitely continue to improve; decant now if you open; otherwise try in 5 or so.
