"Brilliant red. A suave, highly perfumed bouquet evokes ripe red berries, incense and tea rose, along with smoky mineral and allspice nuances that emerge as the wine opens up. Stains the palate with energetic raspberry, lavender pastille and spicecake flavors that deepen slowly on the back half. Juicy and vibrant in style, showing excellent finishing clarity, subtle tannins and impressively persistent mineral and floral notes." Josh Raynolds, Vinous.com, Nov 2017 |
