A very young and somewhat resinous wine. The nose shows off ample fruit, perfume, menthol and a funky note. Oak is judiciously impactful. Very structured with medium acidity and a medium-full body. Tannic and hot. Flavours of sweet baking spices, black pepper and a touch of bitterness. Very good length. This could use another year to come together. If drinking now, decant for at least an hour.
