A little closed down upon first opening but with plenty of air, the aromatics really begin to show. The nose is very enticing and floral with red and white flowers mixed in with fresh Provencal herbs, hummus, pepper, mushrooms and gorgeous red berry fruits. Overall an impressive level of complexity on the aromatics but not surprising considering the world class winemaker behind the wine. The palate tightens on the fruit, pushing a more under-ripe red fruit tones followed up by mouthwatering acidity and soft tannins to clear the palate. Drink now and over the next three years
