The highly aromatic nose is minty and herbally, with currant, cassis, and touches of smoke adding complexity. It's full-bodied on the palate nice herbal-minty replays plus red and black fruits on the flavour profile. Acids are well-balanced, while structured tannins provide support. There's just a touch of warmth, but enough fruit to hold it together on the long-lasting, structured finish. Tasted Jan/2020.
