Mineral and black pepper flavors help this dry and full-boded wine stand out from the pack. It has lightly earthy, smoky aromas and bold fruit flavors supported by firm tannins and acidity.

This is a firmly structured and full-bodied wine with great grip in the texture and lots of oak flavor and tannin. The rich fruit flavors are dominated by the grip now, but that should change with time. It's best to drink after 2018.
