Smells of fresh berries, cedar, tobacco, musk, gravel and camphor. It has a degree of polish to the palate yet also possesses some raw, animale funk traits. It is silky of texture with tannins that are sweet and unobtrusive. There’s some savoury, earthy, leather and tar development traits and a length of flavour is excellent. This particular bottle was in great nick with the wine being in just about the perfect place right now. JH 2014
