Love this wine. So classic. Black plums, black cherries, dried cherries, herb and spice. Palate has just killer acidity and freshness. Energy for days. That’s the standout aspect of this wine. Terrific blackberry fruit and a lovely savory, gamey element pervades throughout and then the cleansing acidity finishes it off. So good.

There's fruit, herb, and earth. A basket of cherries, rosemary bush, sage and their roots clinging to nuggets of soil. Pencil shavings, tobacco, and sour crunchy cranberry too. Vibrant, young, fresh - aromatic complexity now, years to grow old into something else.
