First by showing off its funky barnyard notes, then subsiding and showing off its red and black fruit, before finally settling on its vegetal qualities.
The palate is equally impressive. It's a well made Bordeaux, one that drinks higher than its priced.

A great combo of riper cassis and currant-y fruit and roasted chestnut and mocha. Rich palate that shows some underbrush and tobacco leaf along with velvety tannin. A real surprise.
