2012 - warm and barnyardy noise with noise of fur, leather and rabbit. Great body, fresh but bigger tannins. Spiciness on the finish. Good deal!

Dry red blend well suited for a rich meal. Earthy, some cedar notes, with red fruit and bright acidity.

Nose of warm fur/musk (bear, rabbit or hamster), tobacco (cigar) and leather. Full-bodied and smooth mouthfeel, warmness in back palate and tart finish. Great balance.

Nice soft tannic structure and bright fruit typical of old world French wines, not meaty but silky texture. A bit of a sour acidic/mineral bite that gives it a grapefruit kinda twang. Bit o oak as well. Better after it breathes a bit.
