Pnp, super earthy and creosote nose, and really dark black fruits with espresso and dark chocolate powder. Tannins still a bit grainy and seems some balsamic notes on finish for good measure. 89-90 impression, may return to it after some days/air.

A: Deep ruby (as i recall. forgot to note it) N: CRUSHED GRAVEL (took 20 mins to work out what it was and that was reached after reading bottle blurb), POMEGRANATE, blackberry, stone, earth, cherry, lemon rind. P: Dry, medium (+) acidity, medium intensity, medium (+) body, high alcohol (14.5%), med finish...cant remember what the tannin was exactly but medium (+) comes to mind upon further consideration. C: Drink now but has potential for aging. FASCINATING flavor profile. Rather enjoyed this one.
