Winemaker Notes
An intense nose of macerated fruits, reminiscent of cherries and must still be released over time.
On the palate very dense, harmonious with fruit flavors, completely melted tannins, delicate and persistent. Very balanced.

Wine Spectator
This is tightly packed, offering pure cassis, damson plum and bitter cherry fruit, inlaid with singed alder, tea and olive notes. The long finish features a piercing iron spine that runs throughout and imparts a very precise feel. Best from 2022 through 2040.
