Deep and full-bodied wine with a smooth texture, offering a textured and enticing profile. The hints of intense fruit, such as blackberry and cassis, are accompanied by suggestions of new leather and coffee beans, as a wisp of soft bell peppers adds a elegant depth. The tannins are well-balanced, providing a smooth and grippy mouthfeel, in contrast the tanginess is lean and well-integrated. A long-term investment is recommended, as the wine shows superb potential and is likely to improve with age.

Deep and complex nose is immediately apparent, with suggestions of ripe red fruits, inky plums, and a undertone of warm spices. On the palate, the notes are equally impressive, with a fulfilling saltiness and a round leather undertone. The crispness is high, but the follow through is medium, suggesting that the wine may benefit from a longer aging process. Overall, this is a promising vintage that may be worth waiting for.
