Pretty barley notes upon opening, before all the blackberry fruit bursts forth. Mocha, smoke, hay and lots of primary fruit on the palate, cut with sharp minerals and acid. On the finish, it turns to notes of fresh cut herbs and fresh green peppercorns. Great length but chalky, gritty tannins dry the finish and this is still embryonic. Needs 6-7 years to loosen up.

Opaque unlike other champet vintages. I can see why people are excited about 2019 n Rhône’s. Heavily structured and needs lots of time. Dense and very good.
