Saturday, May 21, 2016 - Dense, deep, dark and surly but unfurls nicely after you work plenty of air into it. The nose has some smoke, tar, leather, meat, earth, gravel and dark fruits. It is concentrated in the mouth with plenty of savoury nuance. Flavours build through the palate and you get a touch of black olive saltiness that works nicely with the dark fruit flavour profile. the finish is carried by sweet tannins. It is drinking really well but still has plenty in the tank.
