A real hit of mint and strawberry on the nose with a savoury undertone, tobacco, and thyme. The palate is structured with firm, ripe, clay-like tannins, and has a real sense of sous bois and earthy notes as well. Dense and very introverted and young at the moment, it needs time to unfurl.
COMPOSITION: 100% Merlot
