Iron-rich minerality cuts through sour cherry and dried herbs, the structure severe and uncompromising. Dark chocolate and espresso bitter notes emerge mid-palate, wrapped in firm, drying tannins. The finish stretches out with graphite and sage. Demands patience. This needs another decade to soften.
