Tasting Notes
Day one: Fine aroma of ripe red fruit, sour cherry, some blackberry, sloe, a hint of juniper, dark chocolate, with smoke and some crushed rock behind it. Firm, ripe tannins on the palate, flowing and powerful, very grippy, red fruits again, densely woven, mineral base, long and still young. Day two: Opulently spicy aroma, smoke, cherry, sloe, blackberry, tobacco, valerian, wonderfully fanned out. On the palate it shows with ripe, rich tannins, red fruits again, plus some plum, lining the palate, a little less tension than on day one, but a gain in smoothness, a little fleshier, plum is added, long. Day three: Spicy aroma with lots of cherry, sloe and smoke, backed by crushed rock, almost more stringent than on day two. On the palate it shows with now noticeably mellow tannin, dark cherry, some plum and nougat, blackberry, still good length, tension somewhat reduced, silky, delicate.
