Nutty, slightly leathery and a hint of tobacco on the nose, predominantly dark berries with plum tones, black olives and floral nuances. Clear, relatively polished, tart, juicy, quite noble fruit, animating acid bite and youthful, fine tannins, dense and persistent on the palate, somewhat herbal and quite clearly peppery spice, nutty and delicately bacony tones, herbs, certain depth, salty minerality, interestingly becomes more tart and pithy with air, very good, firm finish. Even better than a year ago.
