Ripe red currant, ***crushed minerality***, asphalt, clayey grippy tannins yet smooth towards the finish, fading acid.

I had both the 2011 and 2012 head to head, I preferred the 2011 for having more character and depth, a great wine worth seeking. It has a deep almost black color, a complex nose that opens with barnyard and then showed layers of black fruits, tar, cherries, licorice and cedar wood, full body, rich with dry moth filling tannins and long rich finish, needs a bit more time. My score 90, drink 2016-2027...revisit for sure
