Some wood and buttercream. A little bit of high ripeness in it. Also tobacco and the first hints of herbal savouriness. Powerful and expansive on the palate. Lots of juice and loosely knit, mellow, polished tannins that almost disappear on the alcohol-led base. Inconspicuous acidity with great freshness, medium density of fruit, mineral finish. Dry finish. Great elegance (in the sense of roundness).
