Brilliant ruby-red. Smoke- and mineral-accented dark berries, licorice and garrigue on the highly perfumed nose. Sappy, expansive blackberry and bitter cherry flavors unfurl and become sweeter with air, picking up a sexy floral note on the back half. Combines power and finesse with a sure hand and finishes very long and spicy, with rounded tannins lending gentle grip. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, December 2019)
