- Very tight on the nose with slow to emerge fresh vegetal tones, a bit stemmy, gaining minty and medicinal tones in the glass with a touch of prune on the nose, really seems to show warm vintage character 2+ Surprisingly cool and layered in the mouth with very fine, rounded tannin 3 Lovely complexity developing in the mouth with solid sottobosco, slightly autumnal, slightly tobacco edges to the earthy, roasted cherry fruit 3 A bit beet rooty on the finish though with sweet cherry fruit peaking out on the long finish and some coriander nuances 2+
