Still a youthful inky core and hue. Fine purity and intensity displaying inky dark fruit, cassis, blackbery, plum with leather, fine spice and some floral notes. Very good grip and concentration on the palate a wealth of tannin but fine degree of polish and adding freshness. Layers of crushed dark fruit with some approaching mature notes, cigar box and cocoa notes leading to an opulent yet fresh finish with great persistency.
