2016 opened April 2024. The bouquet promised a complex and balanced wine, but it didn’t deliver. I detected, licorice, tobacco, and a flinty minerality on the nose. Sour red fruit on the front and a watery tannic structure made this wine a disappointment for me. lots of mineral high notes start on the mid palate and explode on the finish, but there’s nothing to balance them. This wine would pair well with spicy beef jerky, but not much else.
