On the lighter side. Nose has smoky crushed rock, beef jerky, and some purple berry fruit. Good acids propel this along. Medium full on the palate. A little lighter on the palate than many other 17s I’ve had.

A nose of warm raspberry pie..in a barnyard.

Dark raspberry, prune purée, decomposing foliage, black olive. This heavy hitter has a great ending with a lifted acidity and tiny grainy tannins.
Rhône valley love.
