Medium crimson color with moderate bricking at the rim. The aromas are lovely, fully secondary with red currant and cherry, and hints of conifer, minerals and noticeable but integrated oak. The palate is medium bodied with excellent balance, the flavors reprise the aromas with the conifer now more pronounced. This does not offer the greatest body or intensity, but is a thoroughly enjoyable glass with a real sense of place. Rated 92, drink now and over the next few years.
