  P&p. Aromas of dark fruit (blackberry/ black cherry) and rocky earth, with a pungent herbaceous streak along the lines of tarragon/basil/anise. Similar elements on the palate, working well together. Fairly grippy tannins, taking a bit of palate acclimation. Good acidity provides lift, freshness, balance. Cohesive and tasty. Significantly more open, balanced and enjoyable than the last time I drank this, in mid-2012.

  Oh man this is so good. Incredible freshness and balance for the region. Dark fruits, earthy and mineral notes.

  After a few hours decanting, it's drinking very well now. Exceptional wine. Not much to add here right now, but given that some people mentioned it was still too youg, I wanted to say it's drinking very nicely now after a few hours of air.
