I adore the wild character of this wine. Unreal spice on the nose, soppy cherries, soupy but so clean, mineral, tree bark, some sous bois. Palate is ripe, juicy and fresh. Terrific acids and so so pure. Clean. Juicy and slippery. Loads of red cherry and black cherry fruit. Elegant tannins. Long finish. Charmingly rustic. Awesome freshness and the nose is super expressive.

Jul 30th, 2018Sick sick nose. Spice, big vivid cherry stank. Minerals. Very 2015 pungent. Palate has sweet sweet fruit but terrific acidity. Very dense and fresh. Terrific tension. What great acids and explosiveness. Pure and rustic. Awesome.
