Tasting Notes

Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Mar 15
Full medium red. Lovely perfume of red berries, sandalwood and dried flowers. At once seamless and precise on the palate, offering excellent energy and lift to the flavors of red cherry, cranberry, spices and flowers. Finishes sweet but firm and vibrant, with a touch of pepper contributing to the impression of grip. Very young.
