Points: 94
Rating: Stars

A precise, measured and focused bouquet with scents of baking spices and roasted plums, some black berry fruits and wood smoke. Complex and youthful, enticing and new. Delicious and dry on the palate with flavours of anise and vanilla, plums and dark berry fruits and nut. Firm tannins and acidity remind me of the youthful side of this wine, but the core fruits and sweeter wood flavours make this example morish and drinkable today. Best enjoyed from late 2023 through 2029+.
