Huge aromas. Dense and dark as a forest in the dead of night. Blackcurrant, bramble, graphite, plums, something meaty and animal too, and blackcurrant leaf. Huge in the mouth too, the wine slips and slides across the tongue, and eventually lands with fairly substantial tannic might and a pulse of deep plummy perfume, like a bubble rising to the surface. Matured in barrels, 30%-50% of which were new oak. Drinking window might be conservative, but the sweet delectable fruit is so delicious that I'm inclined to say enjoy it in its relative youth.
