Structured, dense, minty. Firm and tense, almost chewy, with floral, sour cherry, and earthy components on a nervy acid spine. This packs a punch and really has quite a lot going on. Bright future ahead . Gorgeous.

Very high toned and pretty nose. That “natural” thing, spices, sour cherries, mid season cherries, floral, cinnamon. A knockout nose. Palate is less fruity than nose suggests. Pure, clean and juicy. Complex, pure and balanced. Very very drinkable and in the zone. Barely there tannins and very fresh.

Vivid ruby. Powerful red/dark berry aromas pick up a sexy floral quality and a touch of spiciness with air. Concentrated yet lively in style, offering palate-staining, mineral-tinged black raspberry, bitter cherry and blood orange flavors that show excellent clarity and turn sweeter on the back half. Shows a touch of candied licorice on the gently tannic finish, which lingers with superb, mineral-driven persistence. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, October 2019)
