...blue and black fruits as well as beautiful violet and peppery game nuances. It has a firm, mineral-laced style on the palate as well as medium-bodied richness, good acidity, and plenty of tannins.
Currants, mulberries, smoked meat, paprika and incense on the nose. It’s full-bodied with ripe, fine tannins and good acidity. Juicy and plush with a delicious finish.
Subdued but pure aromas of blackberry, minerals, spice cake and licorice. Dense, slightly candied red and darker berry flavors are nicely framed by adequate acidity and ripe, supple, integrated tannins. Offers excellent clarity and intensity and opened nicely with air. Most impressive today for its building finish, which saturates the palate with red and blue fruits, a chocolatey sweetness and ripe, dusty tannins.
...aromas of macerating dark berries, with subtle nuances of summer sausage, dusty resinous flowers and a kiss of oak. Full-bodied, the palate showcases spiced black cherry compote flavors, black plum and black peppercorn with a firm mineral tension before making way for buttressing tannins...juicy and dark-fruited on the long finish with lasting tannins...
The aromas are expressive, with notes of smoked meat, firepit and olive. The palate is soft and plush in feel, offering a compelling texture and structure.
