Just entering its drinking window. 2hr decant and paired with grilled lamb chops. Some secondary notes are coming through - still very tannic. Needs food for sure and should last another 10+ years without difficulty.

Dark red color with some maturity. Red ripe animal scent, hints of red dark cherries, warm prunes, leather and charcuterie. Slightly smoky with a hint of licorice. Taste of dark berries, plums, charcuterie. Rough and tight with an elegant tone. Elements of barrels and a good length.

Tight, reductive and quite unevolved aromas with red berries and flowers. Needs time.

Drinks well know. Still years ahead but no reason to wait. Leather, smell of stable. Needs air - Decanted for 2 hours. Great glass of wine.
