Tasting note: A highly perfumed fresh pure and notably ripe nose offers up notes of red berry liqueur spice and humus that gives way to rich vibrant and mouth coating middle weight flavors that possess a juicy even succulent mouth feel and culminate in a well-delineated finish where the presence of stem tannins can be detected. Their prominence will diminish with time and this is excellent as there is much better precision than one typically finds in the "09 vintage.
