Quite earthy, the sweet, pure, fresh cherries were stained with tobacco. Medium bodied, elegant and fresh, the finish served up a nice spicy note. This is a wine for drinking, not aging.

Dense nose of dark fruit and wet concrete with some herbs. Nice palate with a silky texture, fully integrated tannin, red and blue fruit with a lovely sweetness Great depth. Longish finish. 95 points.
