High tannins. Super tight on open but then just hit its stride. Lead pencil. Focused.

Feb 18th, 2019Exemplifies the 2016 vintage for N. Rhône, balance of concentration, elegance, and perfume. Nose is great combination high-toned/savory notes of peppercorn, bay leaf, woodsmoke, bramble, crushed blackberry, violet, candied olive, licorice candy. Palate confirms the nose, spice-driven, young and taut with its mineral and earthy tones driving through the finish. Tannins have great texture and power with some pliancy to them, approachable now
