2017 vintage. Mint/menthol. Salt water. Must and dust. These all in an intriguing nose along with a splash of paprika. Medium/medium heavy body. Really coats the palate. Fudge, plum, tea, cassis and dark cherry flavors currently chunky, primal and unresolved but still delicious. First impression: prim and proper. Second impression: down to earth and ready to boogie tonite. Turn up the volume on this rustic farm number.
