Still extremly young with high acidity and loads of tannins. Cassis, oak and milk chocolate. Unbalanced today, I would say hold for at least 4-5 years. Very good potential tough.

Sweet, ripe fruit. Coffee, liquirice, tobacco. Round and mature. Well integrated tannins and acids. Excellent, but my memory of last years bottle was more to it's advantage.
Probably won't gain much on further cellaring
