Leather mixed with herb, plum, prune
and dry cherry dominated the nose.
Low acid, silky, moderate tannin yet complex on the palate !!!

2 years barrel, 4 bottle...tasting a little cooked, and and oxidative. Some baked stewed fruit aromas, and a bit of sour note to balance. Palate is balanced.

16/20 (88/100) Травянистый аромат смертями макового зерна, чёрных лесных ягод и подвала. Умеренная тельность, довольно высокая кислотность и мягкие, бархатистые танины. На любителя.
