Quite a stern, savory nose with only a hint of the mixed dried and fresh berries that open up on the palate. This is medium-bodied, tight and focused, with lightly firm tannins that do little to obstruct the fruit flow. Long finish, where the more savory elements take back the reins. Super focus and control here. Drink or hold.

This wine opens with floral and herbal aromas leading the way for ripe raspberries and tart plums to show their freshness. The palate shows sour red fruits with dried leaves, cigar box, leather and cocoa notes finishing with fine-grained tannins and balanced acidity.
