I’ve read so many good things about this producer, but... the last chapter reads of a tart, hollow example.

Earthy herbal for a ripe vintage. Personally, the classic design of the wine doesn't mix well with the ripe vintage. Could have picked too early?

A surprise from several weeks ago that I forgot to write up. Really has tension & drive, great balance between acidity & blackberried fruit.

Light to moderately extracted red; not much purple here. Excellent clarity. Tutti frutti and funk notes in nose. Blackberry flavor, some astringency, seed tannin bitterness and raspberry flavor in finish. A tad tart. Bitterness needs time to mellow with decanting
