Ripe and aromatic nose of smoky cassis, mineral and dried herb. Medium bodied with firm tannins and balanced acidity; comes up a bit short, hopefully time with enhance the perception.

Nice! Mainly oak related flavours though, but pleasant ones. Good texture and length. Drinking well now, enjoyable. 13% alc.

Not terribly interesting, but good solid bordeaux. Cherries, leather and spice with some earthy undertones.
