Flush with licorice and smashed raspberries. Really beautiful mouthfeel that is light and framed by florals. Super happy w the balance of this wine.

The nose on this is gorgeous, but the palate is quite closed and discombobulated. Needs about a year or so to unwind.

Very nice with little pepper or spice. The more you drink, the smoother it gets. Completely worth the price.
