TASTING NOTE: Red-berry and cherry aromas here with a light musky note, following through to a silky, medium bodied palate with fine, spice and mineral-coated tannins and a tight, tasty finish. Really compact and focused. Give this a year or two to open up. Drink from 2023 [and follow through 2030]. Score - 93 (jamessuckling.com, June 2, 2021) Price $ 45.95
