A pretty, fresh and relatively airy array of both red and dark currant aromas is given more breadth thanks to the presence of anise, sandalwood, earth and a hint of underbrush. The cool, pure and lightly mineral-inflected flavors possess good volume and punch though the moderately austere finish displays a hint of dryness that may very well round out as the supporting tannins appear to be sufficiently ripe to do so.
