Stone and tangy blackberries with some kirsch ....Grenache dominates - hot alcohol - wonder if this will improve with age ?

So so young. Rich. Powerful. I'm not a big fan of the word terroir, but this bottle shows where it comes from in a big way. Can't wait to see what it's all about tomorrow.

Big all over. Huge fruit, robust tannin and acid. But all really well balanced.
