Paleo 2016

- 17 points -

Clove and cinnamon notes from oak are quite dominant on the nose, though some spicy, tobacco leaf and ripe black cherry varietal characters are there too. Attractive freshness, with more black cherry, tobacco and a touch of mint. Quite fine tannins carry this through nicely. An appealing wine.
