Pale Ruby Med+ intensity, red cherry, red roses, char, under brush, black olive, umami, red plum, developing. Dry, high acidity, high tannins (chalky), med+ alcohol, med+ intensity, strawberry, blueberry, juicy, tomato leaf, med+ finish. Overall, this wine is a very good wine. Very elegant but powerful. Tannin texture is not integrated well yet.

I opened the bottle several hours ago to give it some time to open. Well, it is drinking quite nicely with lots of dark cherry fruit, silky tannins, good minerality, complexity and balanced acidity. There are also some baking and Christmas spices.

I found this bottle to be tight with some mixed berry and earth on the nose, lots of tannic backbone with a brightness in acidity, flavors of cherry, tobacco and orange peel, never really opened even on the next day, still very youthful with potential to improve, hold longer

Rich and heavy, dark fruited, rich but also in a way difficult at this stage . Maybe needs quite a long decant but at this stage not straight fwd.
