A bit sharpish. Showing a more evolved state than many 2015 I've been drinking.
Color deep ruby with some brick edging.
Nose savory, dried fruit leather, some stoney/mineral elements.
Palate medium bodied, drying but very fine, filigree tannin.
Finish a bit short and pleasant.
Looses quite a bit of character by day 2-3.
Should be good with classic/savory foods in the near term.

Light ruby red. Layered nose with lots of red berries and floral notes, a touch earthy, some mushrooms and a hint of minerality. Moderate acidity (7/10) and low tannins (4/10). Light to medium body with tons of red cherries and a touch of forest floor. Long finish. Gave this a nice decant for around an hour or two, even with that this is very young. Drink till 2027.

Very nicely composed. Dark spicy gamay fruit and loads of granitic stones. Fades a little too quickly to be great.

A bit tannic but very refreshing. Earthy spice with a hint of cloves - tart mouth drying finish
