True to vintage. Open-knit, inviting fruit, pliant tannin, well rounded and checking a lot of boxes for traditional CNDP with a little age on it. The whole cluster character has really melted in here, more so than some other vintages I’ve tried.

Lovely floral, rose nose, with herbal and eucalyptus notes. Nose is really full and interesting. On the palate framboise and some licorice, tannins still a little stiff. All stainless steel/no oak.
