There's a gamy, animal edge to this wine, with aromas of barnyard and cured meat that sit atop the dark core of blackberry, black cherry and plum notes. It's bold and gripping on the palate, with firm, drying tannins and a tight structure that suggests this needs a bit more time to mellow and harmonize. The palate is all dark fruit and spicy oak tones, which carry through to the enduring and drying finish, with notes of bittersweet chocolate, toasted oak, vanilla bean and black fruit skin.
