Light garnet color with a glossy sheen. Earthy clay nose with a solvent lift, red fruits, embers and smoke. An excellent bouquet with much to enjoy. The core of the palate is its acidity, dense but fine grained, and mouth drying tannins again super fine. The acidity and tannins carry the palate, but the finesse of both gives intensity with lightness. Fine and dry. Food accompaniment a must.

Raspberry, cranberry, dark cherry with some forest floor on the medium nose. Palate shows a bit more acidity than I would expect at this age. More fruit, grilled mushroom and lavender hints toward the finish which was medium plus in length but on the dry side. Maybe 2026 will show softer.

Ripe fruit aromas, acidic mulberry fruit on palate leading to an intense long finish of fruit, fine tannin and violets. Great wine. Be very interesting to see how it develops.
