TASTING NOTE: Chopped herb, wild berry, spice and truffle aromas slowly take shape in the glass. The palate shows both concentration and elegance, offering fleshy raspberry, crushed cherry, licorice and crushed mint flavors, bolstered by firm but refined tannins. Drink: 2019-2027. Score - 93 (Kerin O'Keefe, Wine Enthusiast, April 1, 2017) |
