Nutty hazelnut barrel work, berries and handful of aromatic dried herbs and pepper. It''s medium weight with fine dry tannin and an appreciable sense of balance and lightness. All very pleasant and easy going, though not especially deep or complex. Moderate finish, but fresh and clean. Have written a score of 90-91, so take your pick.
