Monthly tasting club "The Tasting Club" 2015-01; Bordeaux blends. (@ RG): Red and dark forest fruits, herbs and vanilla in the bouquet. On the palate sweet ripe fruits like raspberries, elderberry, also herbs and spices like clove, ok acidity and slightly sticky tannin. Some heat in the finish. Ready now and the wine might improve a bit with a few years of ageing.

Love other wines from this vintner, but this was simply too austere, tried a decant, then a little longer, got to the 24 hour mark and still lacking fruit, structure, body.
