Super concentrated, pencil lead, anise, exotic, spicy, alcoholic, not much fruit left. A little odd but I like it a lot. Would have guessed it to be an exotic cab franc rather than a cab. Very interesting.

An unexpected, but not objectionable band-aid smell at first. If you'd told me it was Bordeaux, I wouldn't have argued. Plenty of cassis and blackberry aromas, with well integrated oak and at this point, soft tannins. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
