This wine has a ot of character. Color is not the prettiest or brightest, a bit murky and browning hints but mostly purple garnet.
Nose is interestingly bright, focused and intense, smoky, tar, gamy. On palate much the same but a significant structure. Medium body, bright red fruit, bit of tar and smoke. Medium + length with a good amount of tannins still. Interesting but needs food to go with it.

This wine is still rather tight but no real changes to the note. Nice bottle once it opens up.
