Tasting Notes

Vinous Josh Raynolds - 01 Jun 21
Saturated garnet. An expansive bouquet evokes ripe red fruits, pungent flowers, allspice and licorice, and a mineral topnote lends urgency. Palate-coating raspberry, bitter cherry and candied lavender flavors deepen and turn sweeter with air. Smoothly blends power and delicacy and finishes very long and focused, with fine-grained tannins adding subtle grip.
