A ripe but attractively fresh nose speaks of humus, freshly turned earth, violet and poached plum. There is both good richness and volume to the overtly rustic medium-bodied flavors that possess excellent complexity on the reasonably long finish. This won't win any awards for refinement; indeed as I note, it is markedly rustic, but the depth is really very good and particularly so for such a young wine. This is one to load up on provided a bit of inelegance is acceptable plus it should age gracefully for a decade, perhaps even a bit more.
