Nose like walking in to a flower shop where someone is cooking bacon while a dish of tapenade is passed under your nose. Then, a mouthful of perfectly ripe black fruit, smooth, dusty tannins, and just the right amount of acidity to focus the long, long, dry finish. All the components are there in the right amounts to give this the promise of a mellowing, long life, but I really like this right now while it is still fresh, a bit vibrant and has an interesting edge or two.
