Tasting Notes
Fragrant blueberry on the nose. Strong new wood. Vanilla. Licorice. On the palate densely packed with fleshy tannin, very compact but dissolving juicily, intense mineral freshness, much tension, a clarified structure without any excess. Suitably supple underpinnings, very good length. The alcohol remains almost imperceptible despite 15 percent by volume.
