WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
This wine is instantly compelling with its appealing nose. Bright, candied red fruits dance on top of a dark fruit base with subtle threads of dried herbs and reductive youthfulness. Give this wine plenty of oxygen and watch it evolve over an entire evening. Light on the palate but with a concentration of flavor on the tongue. Smooth with finely integrated tannins and enough acid to make your mouth water.
TASTING NOTES:
I like the currant-bush and light herbal aromas with hints of earth. Medium-bodied with fine tannins. Brightness and freshness to this. Vivid and delicious and will age nicely.
- James Suckling, 95 pts.
Ripe and sleek in feel, with açaí and blackberry pâte de fruit notes rippling along nicely, flecked with violet, sweet bay leaf and savory hints and supported by a cast iron note on the finish. Packs a nice sanguine echo at the very end. Drink now through 2036.
