The aroma present lighter fresher fruits, with pear, peach, cherry, red currant, and raspberry. Swirling gives grape stem and esteva. It tastes quite fruity too. The tannins come through in the finish, and the second taste just fills the mought with pucker. Tastes of black cherry and plum. For now, pair this with a strong meat lime lamb, or game. 90-91 points now, with potential to improve with age.
