TASTING NOTE: No overextraction or excessive concentration here, just bags of beautifully pure berry fruit. Lovely sense of elegance. Really vibrant. Long finish. Tannins are grippy and abundant but not excessive. Destemmed, matured in concrete tank for 20 months. Drinking window: 2022-2026. Score - 92 (Matt Walls, decanter.com, Dec. 10, 2020) |
