Deep and dark ruby red. Layered nose with spices, herbal notes and dark red berries. Heavy tannins (7/10) and medium plus bodied. A bit tight on the palate with dark berries, spices and crushed gravel. Still a baby and needs some time. Dry and long finish. Drink till 2026.

Moderate tannins (7/10) and full bodied. Lots of cassis and dark raspberries. A little dry with a little lead. Great structure and lingering finish. Glad we have a few more in the cellar. Drink till 2026.
