Velvety, but desperately seeking structure.

2013 opened Feb 2017. Green apples and raspberries on the bouquet. Smooth tannins and plums on the front of the palate. Smooth but intense tannins on the top of the palate, and a bit of sourness on the back of the palate. Although Ppetit Verdot is 5% I can taste it as if it were the dominant grape. Very nice but a wee bit raw.
