Initially thought opening this might be infanticide, but at two hours open it’s superb. Cherry fig paste, rose petal, and wet brick, with licorice, thyme, and damp earth.

A bit restrained, turning to garnet color, showing dried cherries, underbrush, wet earth, herbal tones with a medium body, well integrated alcohol and subdued oak. Quite balanced but needs a little time to shine.

Dark cherry, black olive, mint, tobacco, roses on the nose. Pretty. Punchy and dense on the palate- quite tight and tannic still. With time in the glass it’s opening up to be a really lucid and detailed wine but for now the tannins and acid are quite prominent. Excellent potential but probably worth waiting a good five years before it’s really singing
