Smoky note to the red fruit; pepper and capsicum. A firm line of red fruit within. The palate continues the smoky, rocky fusion theme. Northern sector vibrancy here. Clipped tannins for now, a pumice stone effect, with a tiny note of flowers on the finish, which delivers complexity. Appeals to mind as well as palate. Has intrigue and reflects its terroir well. Lovely freshness and length.
