Bottle 1239g. Screwcap. Aromas of moderate intensity, red cherry, dried cherry, black cherry, plum, smoked meat, earth, floral/candied top note. Dry, with elevated fresh acidity, moderate drying tannins, medium-bodied, 13.4% abv. Not much flesh. Berry fruit carries through moderately long finish. Strangely Beaujolais-like, given its composition: merlot, cab sauv, petit verdot, petit manseng, cab franc. Pleasant though.

Aromas of moderate intensity, but complex and savory right out of the gate, belying its youth. Dry, with moderate acidity and moderate grippy tannins, medium-bodied, spare, but the fruit blooms on the palate, sweet and appealing, carrying through to a saline finish.
