The malolactic fermentation has not yet been completed here. The colour is an inky black, some apples on the nose from the malolactic. Unbelievably dense to begin with though redder fruit notes behind, evidently high acid in its unfinished state, but I think this will come through very well. Benefit of the doubt. - Jasper Morris MW
A mentholated top note is present on the notable spicy aromas of poached plum, black raspberry and warm earth. Once again, the palate impression of the medium weight flavors is supple and pliant yet there is good delineation and punch to the slightly stony finish where touches of youthful austerity and warmth arise.
