Tasting
A glossy dark red in the glass with an attractive nose of plum and cedar oak with a hint of white pepper.
The palate is drying and fairly unforgiving at this point, needing time to unravel, there are flashes of the wines future with dusty dark plum and spice, but they are drawn into a drying matrix of tannin that they can't quite escape from.
A wine to put away for a few years.
