Quite brambly in feel, with zesty acidity and a pronounced savory streak adding a perkiness to the mix of blackberry, black cherry and black currant fruit. Floral, anise and warm earth notes fill in on the finish. Feels a bit raw and untamed now, in the old-school style. Cellaring is required so this can modulate itself. Best from 2024 through 2038.
