Everything about this wine is understated, but all the components are perfectly in balance. Roses with a hint of leather on the nose. Light red fruit on front. Medium tannic structure with silky mouth feel. Some gravelly high notes kick in mid palate, but they fade into a smooth finish.
This wine doesn’t need any more aging. It’s complete. I’d rate higher except that it fades fast. Let it breathe in the bottle. Do not decant.
