Generous aromatically, with notes of rose petals, velvet, potpourri, strawberry, red cherry, pie spice, leather, and orange peel. The palate is bright red fruits, alpine strawberry, black cherry, more leather, with juicy acidity, darkening a bit as it opens and gaining depth. While the tannins are there, they are extraordinarily fine in this vintage, and the wine and should have an excellent window for drinking early, as well as cellaring in good fashion.
