Elegance and finesse. Sour cherry, purple flowers, rosemary, mushroom, and stones. High acidity, medium+ finish, diminished young and tight tannins.

Well that’s something I’ve never experienced... Warm, balanced spice in a burgundy?!

Off to a good start. Youthful, yet approachable. Floral followed by bright red fruit family.
