Gorgeous fruit. Hints of spice, licorice, meaty plums and blood. Dried herbs. Supple and delicious with great balance. Inky and intense but open now and enjoyable.

Very CA like. Ripe, fresh and more new oak than the others. Juicy blackberries, dark raspberries, black plum, blueberries, softer dark minerality, leather.

Hot on the nose. A little brett, a lot of acid.
