Earthy and gamey on the nose, with tar, bacon fat, herb, scorched earth and some black and red fruits throw in for good measure. The palate has more fruit, with ripe blackberries, black cherries and some tar and smoke before a long and oaky finish. An excellent effort in a tough vintage, but the intensity expected from this producer never materialized.
