Definitely a full bodied style but in 2018 quite accessible at this stage even with only an hour decant. Lots of fruit, integrated earth and tannins, medium acid threading it all together. Nice pairing with kurobota pork chops.

2018 vintage.
Wow…thank you for no more 2017.
2018 was great.
Deep cherries, mocha, and earthy on the nose.
Bright acidity with ripe red cherry, tobacco and tar.
2018 …..thank you Mother Nature
