Light bodied for a St. Estephe, initially, though it fleshed out a bit the next day. Day 1: decidedly red fruited with red plum, raspberry, autumn leaves, dried herbs, graphite. Day 2: fruit had darkened with blackberry, black plum, currant, tarragon, still graphite, dusty tannins, freshly-turned soil, autumn leaves.
