The medium-high intensity nose is fresh with dark red cherry, raspberry, currant, bramble, and earthy beet root aromas. On the dry, medium-full bodied palate it has very good structure with lovely dark cherry, black tea, oak, spice, and some pepper spice notes. Acids are fresh, while the light tannins provide good structure. Earthy and mineral notes linger on the long, savoury finish. Enjoyable now, but still a bit young. I would tuck this away for 2-3 years. Tasted Mar. 2024.
