1 person found it helpfulMay 6th, 2018Pretty lively. You've gotta love the sense of place with lots of cinnamon, chocolate powder, red and black pepper, currant, and blackberry rolling around in your mouth. There is significant minerality going on (volcanic rock's my bet) and it's balanced by new world juiciness. My only knock on it is faint pyrazines would have made this wild but I'm just speaking of personal hopes. Had this with Mediterranean food.. Zero regrets!!
