I love the bright cherry here throughout. On the nose, that cherry announces itself well, but the nose doesn't reveal everything because the nose is I think very Bordeaux. Black-red fruit at equal measure. On the palate, a lot more interest kicks off... Cherry both candied and fresh off the tree... Really the tannin here is a funny star of the show. It's very present though subdued. I like it!
