Ripe red and black fruit, spices and oak. PnP it wasn't super aromatic, but good balance. Tannins have softened, and except for a touch of heat on the nose, quite enjoyable.
Medium ruby colour.
Pronounced aromas of blackberry, ripe strawberry, red cherry, plum, all spice, clove, cigar box, dried herbs.
Pronounced palate.
Full body, medium (+) acidity, medium (+) tannin, long finish.

Subtle, elegant, great texture and slightly creamy mouthfeel. Mineral driven, orchard fruit and some salinity. Great food wine, but also nice to sip by itself. Very enjoyable.
Medium gold colour.
Pronounced aromas of lemon tart, lemon confit, apple, pear, citrus pith, sea foam, wet stone, crushed oyster shell, white flowers.
Pronounced palate.
Medium (+) body, high acidity, long finish.
