Medium garnet wine with medium-intensity aromas of blackberry, cocoa, lavender, black pepper, and bell pepper.
Medium-intensity taste of sweet black fruits, chocolate, red fruit, smoke, and minerals. Medium plus acidity with soft tannins. High alcohol that you do feel
Ripe and almost lush, soft and cuddly like a teddy bear. A solid right-banker if a little faceless. I'd say that this is near or at its peak, I see little to be gained by holding this for an extended period of time. Tasted May 2023.
