| TASTING NOTE: An elegant red, with a delicate, herbal overtone, boasting ripe and juicy black cherry and black raspberry fruit. Gains depth from an underpinning of smoke, zesty ground white pepper and anise, while creamy tannins lend definition to the finish. Drink now through 2026. Score - 90 (Alison Napjus, winespectator.com, May 31, 2023) |
