Firm reduction dominates the fruit so be sure to decant this if you're going to crack a bottle in its youth. Otherwise there is fine volume and punch to the dense and seductively textured medium-bodied flavors that brim with both dry extract and minerality where the latter element really comes up on the saline and beautifully persistent finish where a hint of bitter cherry pit character arises. This is really very good.
