Lots going on here. Nose has underbrush, moist leaves, roasted peanuts, dark cassis. Linear and intense in the mouth. Still quite a bit of tannin. Dry cassis extract, leather, minerals. Very full-bodied. Pretty long finish. Old school Medoc flavors in a bigger " welcome-to-global-warming frame."
NIGHT TWO: Lots more pure cassis and focused blackberry shining through.
