Firm, slightly smoky and somewhat herbal-spicy aroma of more black than red berries with cherry notes, hinted tobacco, pepper, leathery nuances, and sage. Ripe, quite dense, juicy, youthful fruit, slightly smoky and coffee-roasted barrel tones, a certain acidity bite and ripe, rather fine tannins, dark ethereal spice on the palate, a hint of dark chocolate and coffee, floral nuances, certain minerality, still undeveloped, very good finish.
