  Appearance: Deep garnet color with a slight orange rim.
  Nose: Aromas of ripe red cherry, dried herbs, leather, and tar, with secondary aromas of licorice and tobacco.
  Palate: Full-bodied with high tannins and medium+ acidity. Flavors of dark cherry, licorice, and tobacco. The wine has a long, persistent finish with a good balance of acidity and tannins.
  Conclusion: The wine is drinking well now, but it has the potential to age for at least another 10-15 years.

  After a few months of Coravin. An elegant perspective, cherry, Rose, tar. Really text book, but in an elegant and classic manner. Lots of rainwater on cement after the rain. Medium tannin. There’s a modest earthy dimension on the palate, and still more freshness and class take over. Really nice for basic 2015.

  Opened and poured with no time to decant. Surprisingly approachable given its youth, but another five years will do wonders for it!
