Silky mouthfeel, deep blackberries and blueberries, refreshing, open and inviting. Not terribly aromatic unfortunately.

Dark fig and plum, tons of minerality and structure on the nose. weird. med body med plus acidity and round texture and easy drinking character. Weird. I expected more on this. I would be happy to re-taste this wine.
