A youthful light to medium red hue in the glass, classical burgundy nose with smokey stem, a touch of forrest floor and some wonderfully vibrant red cherry fruit that benefits from new oak inputs.

A line of mineral acidity and drying yet fine tannins are at the base of this wine. There is an underlying earthiness to the dark berry fruits that are beautifully complimented by sage inspired spice.

The finish is long and drying; this wine is screaming out for time in the cellar.
