This is in an awkward place. It's lost its fruits but hasn't yet picked up bottle age notes. Give this a few more years please. Pronounced coffee notes, smoked meat, iron, blood, and earth. This was a very dirty and meaty wine. Medium tannins and very good length. But right now's it's just an earth bomb

Purple/red in colour. Aromas showing dark berries and red cherries, smoky/dusty/earthy, black pepper, spices, mineral tinged. Flavours: Smooth elegant, medium weight. Dusty to slightly chewy tannins. Tannins a bit rough and edgy, bitterness. Drying on the finish. Nice core of minerality surrounded by cherries, currants and dark berries. Flavours repeat aromas, but more bitter edginess to the flavours. Needs more time in bottle to smooth out.

Deep ruby. Tons of black fruit on the nose (blackberries and blueberries), violets, licorice and tobacco. Very expressive on the palate with the same aromatic character. Medium+ bodied wine, with medium+ acidity and high level of fine tannins. Incredibly well-balanced with really long finish! Great!

Clear, deep ruby. Nose of sweat, meat, fur, dark chocolate, leather and kirsch.
Firm, chalky tannins. Hot. Young. Powerful acid.
Rich black fruit, espresso and meat on the palate.
Very young. Lots of potential.
