Needed to be decanted and one it opened up was very good. Great balance, good fruit, acidity and structure. Will be curious to see how the wine evolves over the next few years.

A revisit 1.5 years later. Still some great fruit and acidity but starting to develop more savory, leather spice.

Элегантный ягодный аромат, вишня, брусника, пряности, мята. Очень красивый, тонкий и мощный.
