Dark and brooding, with layers of black fruit, cedar and crushed flowers that hint at greatness beneath. The structure is there. Firm but polished tannins frame concentrated fruit without feeling heavy. Still closed and searching for its full expression, but the pedigree shows through. This will reward patience.
