Tasting notes
Tank sample. Bright crimson. Opulent fruit and very round fruit in the middle but with sharp edges. A fair amount of acidity and light tannins. Correct if a tad tough. (JR)

A pungent nose is comprised by notes of wood, menthol, various red berries and plenty of Vosne-style spice. I like the delineation of the vibrant medium weight flavors that terminate in a dusty and mildly austere finish. This will need a few years to better integrate its wood and develop additional depth.
