WINEMAKER'S NOTE:
This wine presents itself with a beautiful balance of elegance and power. Layered aromas of violets, ripe plums and a hint of eucalyptus are prominent on the nose. Rich flavors of candied black cherry, complemented by notes of balsamic and licorice unite on the palate upon first taste. Subtle tannins create an elegant mouthfeel that is enhanced by lingering notes of black pepper, baking spice, and sweet mint.
TASTING NOTES:
Minerally and detailed, with wet stones, graphite, dark cherries, blackcurrants, licorice, cocoa and black olives on the nose. Compact and seamless on the palate, with firm tannins and a dusty texture that leaves a chalky, minerally impression. Focused and balanced. Drink or hold.
- James Suckling, 93 pts.
