Good fruit, savory and quite dry with some secondary nuances. Got better over the evening and the last taste was the best, but an hour or three of decantation ahead of time would have been the ticket. Needs 2-3 more years.

Elegant looking wine with a deep aroma but the taste is muted and distant with a harsh transition to a green gravel appearance. It is not very reachable.

Floral nose of red fruit, earth, loam, herbs, and a touch of sap. The palate is mid-bodied, dry, and expressive, flaunting raspberries, cherries, and strawberries. Shows good minerality, balance, and terroir. This is tasty, great with food, and a pleasure to drink.

Tobacco, earthy smells.
Weaker flavor, short finish.
Tannic, very dry. Finishes with some fruity aromas, like berries and cassis.

Started to open up after about 30 minutes in the decanter. Notes of menthol, graphite, pencil lead and sour fruit. Good value at $25.
