Great nose of violets, dark berry fruit and pepper. Very tight upon opening, with tannins that still feel a little harsh at the moment. Good acidity and balance, although a touch alcohol is perceptible in the finish. The potential is there, but this wine needs more time to integrate and unfold. Hold for 3 - 5 years or give it lots of air.

Dark purple opaque color. On the nose some shy dark berries and peppery notes. Mint pepper and eucalyptus on the palate. Very tightly wound. After 12h more fruit and integrated tannins. Superb balance. I'd not open the next bottle before 2023. Great potential!
