"Pale orange. Powerfully aromatic, spicy nose of raspberry, earth, pancetta and spices; quite Burgundian. Full-bodied, powerful and concentrated, with strong, ripe red berry flavors. Shows lovely sweetness of fruit in the middle but finishes adamantly dry. Strong acidity gives this young wine terrific grip and thrust."
