Intensely floral aromatics featuring lavender and violets, a elegant fruity core composed of blackberries with some blueberries that lead to a slightly sauvage note followed by a earthy profile with some oriental spices, and stone dust. Sweet dark fruit flavors on entry that lead to a refreshing balsamic midpalate followed by an intense chalky minerality that seems to cool the palate which culminates with an explosion of oriental spices, and elegant yet chewy tannins. I particularly like the elegance and cohesion in this wine, it is drinking beautifully now while the 2014 seems a bit massive and going into deep slumber.
