Beautiful balance of fruit and pencil shavings. The tannins are still a bit firm, but not overpowering. Medium-long finish. Still has at least a decade of life, but delicious now if you like wines with a little less age. Drinks above its price point.

Pop and pour. Really sings with time in the glass, so I suggest decanting. Still showing primary fruit on the nose, with some graphite and cedar underneath. The palate is very smooth, with a nice balance of fruit and cedar. Tannins are firm, yet approachable. This has a long life of excellent drinking ahead of it. A fantastic effort!

Nice blend of fruit and graphite. Drinks nicely after a few hours of air. Delicious.
