Brooding and backward, this Conteisa demands patience. Dark cherry and earthy spice emerge slowly, joined by leather, rose petals and mineral notes that gain intensity with air. The palate shows impressive concentration. A result of cutting yields in half. With firm tannins that promise graceful evolution. Built for the long haul. Drink 2027-2045.
