Graphite and wet stone dominate the nose, followed by dark plum and violet undertones. The palate shows remarkable concentration, with firm tannins that feel almost sculptural in their precision. Pure mountain minerality drives the long, focused finish. Needs a decade to fully integrate. Drink 2025-2040.
