Nose little wet dog and bretty not very pleasant, horsehair, with air and 2 hours in decanter develops into aged mushroom and truffle character with black fruits and some spice, palate delicate with dried fruit plum and bramble confit, slightly mushy strawberry, delicate. Needs decanting and patience.
