Light fruit scent, dark but clearly translucent appearance, Some mineralogy with hints of figs and dates with low tannins.

Initially nope. Very disjointed with a lot of interesting bits but so much not tied together that we had to set it aside. Too young and just not ready. 3 hours in a decanter, with some aggressive aeration and it started to come together. Still very acidic and not quite together but some very nice sweet red fruits starting coming out and showing a lot of promise. Right now it's a decent wine but with 3-5 years in the bottle it should come together and be lovely. I'd feel good cellaring 5-6 bottles and waiting for them.
