    This serious wine is beginning to mature. Its spicy wood and mint flavors are now integrating with the rich structure. The finish is bright in a final burst of fruit. Drink from 2018.

    On the lean side, this is a tannic and structured wine. The fruit is stalky, with a black currant note and tight acidity, creating a wine that needs 1–2 years to really soften.

    While the aromas speak of wood aging, the fruit comes through on the palate. It is firm, full and dry, and the fruity acidity and fresh black currant flavor backs up the structure.
