TASTING NOTE: From the hot 2015 vintage, which promoted great ripeness across the varietal spectrum. Though this wine is bone-dry, the ripe fruit here delivers a suggestion of sweetness. Floral and rich with juicy red and dark fruit, cassis, blackcurrant and creamy vanilla oak tones. This is a ton of wine for the price. (Vintages panel, Feb. 2017) |
