Some truffle and earth development. A little redder fruited than usual. There’s some engaging spicy notes and it is silky with tannins that have just about resolved. Drinking beautifully.

Deep garnet colour. The nose showed red and dark berries, violets, and a smoky hint. In the palate, the wine had a dense (especially for a 2007) texture and persistent flavours of sappy, slightly toasty fruit, florals, and a bit of underbrush. Medium tannins and acids. Primary, like many 2007s, drinkable now, but this has the material to age and develop.
