2015 is great in 2019. Lots of tannins to balance high alcohol and medium acidity. Cab Franc adds nice barnyard funk, other varietals add nice fruit flavor. Smooth, medium body, nice even finish.

Spicy, slightly earthy nose. The taste opens with warm fruit notes, making you expect great things... But it's pretty blasé through the middle of the tongue . Just not much to it. The wine is certainly under-oaked; perhaps this was a particularly rainy vintage? Letting the wine sit on the back of the tongue yields to a slightly spicy finish, but you have to work for it to get there. 6/10.
