A real delight, tannins have smoothed out, but this was still pretty tight after opening. Didn't decant, but drank slowly over 2 hour dinner. Opened up nicely toward the end, sweet dark fruit and 30-45 second finish.

Big dusty nose. The palate is full of blueberries, red berries, cassis, some oak, spices. Complex and young. Great acid and firm tannins. Give this time but its delicious,

Just a beauty. Mature but still fruit forward with plush mouthfeel and long finish. Bravo!

Red currants and cassis. The tannins are nicely integrated, medium to full bodied- more plush than rustic. Entering prime drinking window.
