Top Notes For

9.1

Nice tannic structure. Bit of a sprinter. Nose fell off sharply after opening. Acidity paired nicely with soldier beans in a strongly flavored sauce. Less pleasant after but still decent. $22.

Dried red fruit, pretty aromas, lots of acidity, very pretty wine, not big or lush, firm structure, but on the feminine side
