Complex, layered. Flavor profile varies as it breathes. Mixed berries and currants upon opening, smokiness (cigars on nose) and sour cherries as it breathes. Hard, granular texture, traces of minerality (fluoride-y) good acidity.

This wine has so much potential! Still needs time...blackberries, pencil shavings, minerality, acidity...

Tightly wound tannins and nice acid. Needs time - 2+ years. Very earthy/mineraly
