Some typical green pepper on the nose with a unique medicinal/iodine note almost reminding me of a northern Rhone syrah!

Sweet, ripe fruit on the palate but also quite savory with masculine leather and tobacco flavours. I found the complexities in this wine quite interesting. If you like old-school styled Cab Francs this is worth trying especially at this price.
