Not an overly expressive nose, but tons of aromatic complexity in the mouth. Anise, fennel, black fruits, with some light, savory vegetal and woody notes. Tremendous palate impact. Still feels youthful and energetic.

Classically lardy nose, but to me this lacks the impact and focus to match the type of creamy, savory dishes I would normally want to pair it with. Oddly though, this very quality, along with rich, sweet, muddled fruits across the mid-palate and oily viscosity, make it much more satisfying once dinner is over. I'll be interested to see how the rest of the bottle tastes 24 hours from now.

Didn't take tasting notes, but I can say that, if you're looking for a wine to pair with haggis for a combined Burns Night/Australia Day party, you could do much worse than this.
