Bretty, raisinated Grenache aromas dominate this youngster. Good acid-to-tannin ratio, should be lovely with time. From magnum.

Jun 24th, 2020Spicy, leather, deep red fruit, blackberry, ripe plum, cedar, and some vanilla. Rich like a mince meat pie. It would be fun to drink this again in 2023. Deep candied brown sugar notes. Really nice.
