Fruit not as pronounced as it would have been a few years ago.

Aromas of oak, cassis, vanilla , tobacco, bell pepper with a hint of plum and blackberry.

Palate of fleeting plum and blackberry. After that some herbs, pepper and black tea. After an hour plus some red fruits try to show themselves but not for long.

Medium plus acidity with grippy dry tannins that don't last too long
