Green herbs and crushed stems muscle past the red fruit core, creating an unbalanced frame that needs time to settle. Cherry and citrus zest show promise beneath the vegetal overlay, but the whole cluster treatment feels heavy-handed here. The tannins grip hard without offering much finesse. Give it several years to find its footing.
