Started off very funky, but after some air revealed expressive, lively red berry fruit and equal game, olive brine, and savory herbs. Savage and powerful but well balanced on the palate, with layered dark cherry, smoked meats, and violet florals. Lively red berry acidity, herbs de provence, and rustic tannins characterize the smokey finish. At a nice point in its evolution. Drink or hold.
