A highly restrained nose requires aggressive swirling to liberate the softly spicy nose of attractively layered aromas of dark currant, black cherry, violet, lilac and plum aromas. Here too there is a lovely mineral streak that runs the length of the refined medium-bodied flavours that possess excellent complexity and punch, all wrapped in a balanced, lingering and lilting if linear finish. While this moderately firm effort will also probably drink reasonably well young I would still be inclined to allow it a minimum of 5 to 7 years of bottle age first to resolve at least some of the structure.
