This is drinking beautifully at the moment. Nose is showing cola and intense cherry sap, along with moist underbrush and gravelly scents. Some sweet graham cracker spice. Velvety textured, it shows more stony minerality on the palate than the nose, but with nicely concentrated, crisp, ripe cherry fruit as well. Terrific wine. — 2 months ago
