Nose has dried loam, baking spice, mashed ripe black cherry, curry (?) or wet clay pot, interesting nose for sure. A little Gamay-ish at this very youthful stage.
Palate has fresh cherry, slight molasses cookie, charred red pepper, dehydrated/sweetened cranberries, faint saline traits, dehydrated sweet cherries with medium finish and fading acidity after more air time. Decanted 4H at time of notes, continuing to unfold...
Paired to Shakshouka, the spice/heat of the dish worked well with the fruity wine notes. We're always fans of red Burgundy with spicy Asian or Middle East style cuisines.
Honestly, a little too youthful for my pleasure tonight, drink 2025-2030+.
