Fresh raspberries, dried cherries, and fainter notes of darker berries. Florals like violets and roses develop with a little breathing time, as do the mineral elements of tar and iron, but the tertiary characteristics are the true delights here. Leather, tobacco, earth, and licorice ratchet up their intensity for lovely savory components among the fruits. On the palate there are dried cherries and plump raspberries, followed by hints of chocolate flakes interspersed among dried violets. Leather, tobacco leaf, truffle, and licorice provide a mixture of chewy and cooling flavors that starkly contrast against the piquant notes of iron and slightly muted tar. Acid is plentiful but not overly aggressive, cozying up instead with the soft, plush tannins to balance a medium full body with a velvety texture. Long and clean on the finish, notes of violets, raspberries and iron minerality go on and on.
