Ground pepper, Alpine herbs and spiced blueberry unfold in the glass. The evolved palate offers ripe red currant, dried blackberry, white pepper, anise and tobacco alongside polished, fine-grained tannins. It closes on a note of grilled herbs. The fruit is drying up so drink sooner rather than later.
