Big beefy leather blackberry nose. Slightly rustic and slightly green, high acid, Old World, and a touch thin. Better after decanting 20 mins.

Deep, dark black fruit nose shows some unbutton incense and minty chocolate. Grippy tannins and savory black plum on the palate. Tea and soy saucey finish leaving a distinctly umami impression.

Slightly austere despite some time in the bottle. But still showing scorched earth.
