Lovely wine, nicely balanced, firm and direct. Medium bodied, with nice restraint for the vintage. Good interplay between the red fruit and savory notes - spice, iron, earth, mint. Decent grip on the finish, with nice verve. Great with food.

Aug 3rd, 2021Wine smells maybe a little tropical? Dried pineapple and papaya, a bit of sulfur. Not getting much citrus. Maybe some type of blossom in there too. Pretty dry.
Has a rush of sharp flavor when it hits different parts of my mouth, which fades away and goes through different layers. Seems pretty complex. Dry at the end, light + body, sulfur at the end too.
Curious to see what I think whenever we get to drinking the second bottle.
