Dark brooding wine, with glimmers of raspberry, clove, and toast, subdued perfume, and dried beef. It’s full-bodied, tannin is firm and tightly packed, and some tobacco and toast, but kind of locked up as a young wine. Acidity is settled, and there’s something like boysenberry freshness hiding in the darkness. It’s pretty long, grainy, and full to close. It feels like a wine with a big future.
