Sweet cedar and smoked black cherry fruits, plenty of dark spices. This is enjoyable with upfront fruits, well worked tannins and a sense of lift.
Bright on the nose, the palate is dark and quite serious. No massive acidity nor brightness, but there is a lovely refinement to the fruit – it feels sculpted and poised, if not showy and bright. A linear style with a push from start to finish, then a strong menthol character pushing things on the tail.
