Drinking really well after a short decant. Very floral nose with some candied fruit. Pretty bright on the palate with explosive black fruits, a bit of plum and still some spiky tannins. Loads of acidity. This wine is capable of a few more years in bottle, but is pretty delicious right now. I'm surprised by how young this is drinking. Also a fan of the 13.5% alcohol. A really nice wine.
