To me this showed a more restrained style of VIO, nuanced nose and palate in terms of luscious fruit and perfume, showed more cut, more phenolic character, very mineral. The unctuousness came across in the mouthfeel, viscous and oily but never flabby. Very deft oak here. Not an obvious VIO which adds intrigue and interest. I’m a fan!

2013 vintage. Bold and ripe flavors offering generous amounts of stone fruits and a lees-stirred, creamy finish. Somewhat clipped finish. Lowish acidity and lofty alcohol.
