Mature, workman like Bordeaux. Nose has underbrush , dried eucalyptus leaves, and some cassis fruit underneath that layer of detritus. Lots of brick and dried underbrush flavors, but finishes flat and short.

Very nice spicy nose. Good tannic structure. A bit closed at first but hints of future complexity are evident.
