Another very nice ‘22 Bojo. I am in the process of revising upward my view of the ‘22 vintage there. Nose is very exuberant, with pure and zingy black cherry fruit, verging into purple berry territory, and nose-tingly granitic rock dust. There is also a dusting of baking spice. In the mouth it has nice concentration, ripe but zingy fruit, integrated minerality. Acids are surprisingly crisp. I expect this to integrate and be better in a year or two. But really nice now as well.

What a juice! Almond, cherry, iron, a bit of barnyard. There is life in there! The palate is very yummy with a super juicy cherry, a strong grip some roundness in mid palate and a bit of tannins. This is wide and ample and the finish keeps that wide amplitude until the end. It feels like a cherry cannon is firing up in mid palate ans remains straight forward for a very long while. This is 15% but very quaffable. Not as playful and fruitful as others in the region but what a structure! Love it
