TASTING NOTE: Fresh violets, lilac, wild plums, allspice and wild herbal aromas pour from the glass. The focused palate shows tart cherry preserves, warmed cloves, roasted coffee and dark chocolate that finishes with a crushed chalk minerality. Fine tannins are present but in balance, working with fresh acidity to keep this wine in harmony. Drink now-2045. Editors' Choice. Score - 97 (Jeff Porter, Wine Enthusiast, Oct. 1, 2023) |
