Crushed red and black berries, loam, and hints of cedar and oak. Medium+ body with well integrated tannins. Similar flavors, although the profile is a bit reversed—the cedar is more to the fore and the berries are a bit more muted. Long finish, but not much to it.

Decanted for 2 hours. Still tightly wound and can use a few more years. Nose was a bit muted but had some nice crushed berries and alot of earthiness coming through. Needs time.
