The nose opens on ripe black berry fruit aromas, joined on airing by notes of roasted coffee beans and black pepper. From a highly expressive attack on the black fruit found on the nose, the peppery notes that emerged with airing return on a midpalate which combines power with heft. The finish lingers on an intense array of black fruit, spice and roasted coffee bean flavors.

Engaging cumin spices with glossy currants, black olives and tobacco leaf. A medium-to full-bodied carmenere with juicy black fruit and firm but silky tannins. Nice length, with some dark spices and olives.

Compact and savory, this version slowly reveals dusky rose petal and mineral accents built on a structured core of black cherry and plum. Finishes with precise tannins and nice length. Best after 2026.
