Very trim and taut, racy in a way, lean in its fruit personality, grippy in tannin and shy in perfume. Red cherry, tart cranberry drink, truffle, toasted almonds, some bitter herbs and a crunch of likewise bitter, peppery caraway seeds that finish the wine. Minerality, a general mix of stony qualities and quartz-y things, sits under, and pleasingly so. Time should help this loosen up a little from its stern place at present. You can see the potential and kudos for making a vin de garde style. 2028-2035+
