Pure red fruit..slight mint and herbal. Pretty angular , zero oak influence, can almost taste steel its that linear yet purity of fruit brings it home...

I’ve had these wines maybe twice before and I know that they are on the more lean side of the spectrum. This was no different. I loved the aromatics here...candied black cherry, mint, and herbs. Very tight and youthful on the palate...this wine comes across as if it didn’t even sniff oak! Steely and pure. Cherry menthol and rhubarb tart. Unique.

It’s all about the fruit here. A surprisingly light body, pale edges with deep ruby color, a nose of beautiful rose and candied hibiscus, with delicate, silky tannins, tart cherry with beautiful acidity and a delicate finish of raspberry and dry minerality that lingers long into the night.
