Black cherry, bilberry and mulberry leaf. Prunes, blueberries and violets. Crushed black earth, granite and clove studs. Wood ear mushroom, vanilla pod and cocoa pod. Red oak and cedar. The palate opens with raspberry and wild exotic red florals and acidity soars. Tannins are fine grained and elegant. This is nipped and tucked in all the right places and makes for a savvy wine. JH
