Initially, this wine appears a bit harsh and requires ample aeration to settle and reveal its true character. The nose is somewhat restrained at first, with hints of red fruits, eucalyptus, cola, dry wood, and forest floor. On the palate it's fresh, juicy, intense, and boasts a long finish. Despite being absurdly young, it presents a complex profile. The aftertaste is a delightful blend of blueberry and aged pressed bai mu dan, evoking an autumnal character.
