fairly similar in the nose and mouth as before:
"strong smokey mineral whiff in the nose that dissipates enough to let the perfume thru: rose petals, blood orange, sous-bois and wisps of clove enhance the red cherry and pomegranate fruit notes. medium bodied in the mouth, it has a decidedly savoury character with green herbal notes mixing in with the fairly rich red and black fruit and spicy accents; noticeable acidity and polished tannins are present but less prominent than a mineral vein that carries thru to a nice long finish."
there is evidence of development in hints of an umami vein.
while drinkable now with good aeration, i would give this another three years minimum to better display its complexity.2 people found this helpful 348 views
