Burgundy meets Cornas, missing some of that ferral, peppery, campfire ash I prefer, but what it lacked made up for in elegance, fruit and polished structure.

Enjoyable showing notes of dark berry fruits, olive, meat, mineral, licorice & violet. Youthful, medium bodied & finish that is just entering its drinking window

Decanted for 24 hours. In great shape, just showing subtle olive and dark fruit. Was excellent with steak!
