Still quite youthful colour. Very leathery, spicy nose. Baked plum. Nuances of woodsmoke. Dry palate, light tannin. Quite tertiary, more smoky notes. Round and smooth. Velvety soft finish. Touches of sour cherry. Plenty of acidity. Probably needs drinking over the next couple of years, but at a great phase now.

Thin and tannic, but behind that plenty of cherry fruit. Not convinced that it will develop into anything better from here though.
