Forest floor, fresh rosemary, fresh mint, tomato leaf, brown mushrooms, ripe red cherries, ripe strawberries and ripe raspberries on the nose. Medium + intensity of aromas, with the non-fruit aromas (especially the herbs) taking the lead. Overall it smells velvety. Fruit-driven on the palate with mushrooms in the background and cedar wood and vanilla toward the end. The flavors are pretty consistent with the aromas; just flipped - the red fruits take center stage. The secondary flavors on the finish are the only evidence of oak on this wine (neutral barrels, surely). Medium + intensity of flavors.
Medium body with medium acid and medim tannin. Developing; but drinking really well at this young age. Will improve with 3-5 more years in the bottle too.
