Smelling of black plum, sage and soy, this wine starts with a bold nose. The palate flavors show more advanced development than the aromas in light cigar notes, but what is most remarkable is its overall elegance. The tannins are grainy and tightly-knit but refined, while the vibrant acidity is gently woven into the medium-plus body. The finish lingers with intense graphite notes and blackberry preserves. This is a very pleasant wine to accompany refined dishes. Drink now–2024.
