With air, more tertiary notes emerge: forest floor, damp earth, cedar, and a hint of sous-bois mushroom character, alongside delicate spice and light oak toast. The palate is firm, linear, and well-defined, with the 2012 vintage giving a sense of tension rather than plushness. Tannins are fine but still present, providing structure without harshness.
