Mineral, gravel, dusty, first impression, mixed of dried herbs of rosemary, mint and oregano, basil and mint, nutmeg and all spice, cocoa powder, chocolate, licorice, dried dark fruit with prune, raisiny, dried fig, but not ripe Appreciate different layers of flavors but high alcohol. Assumed reflect the terroir well. Can be a great food wine but drink by it’s own could be a challenge. Med to med plus tannin, med acidity, leave your mouth dry. A bit unbalance from my taste.

Strawberries and acid. This was calling for a blazing hot day and a stack of smoked ribs, as the acid would have cut through both like a saber.
