Gamay more

4/19/2024 - whits Likes this wine: 94 points

Explodes out of the glass with scents of fresh strawberry, orange peel, and violets, the fruit is concentrated and the body is lifted, bright and clean acid, this vintage is a version that sports a magical mouthfeel, pops with flavors of strawberry, wild blueberry, stone and sweet mint, this is a talkative wine! And cellar worthy.

Dark red wine shows blueberries, licorice and peppercorn, opens well with time in the glass, the acid is medium at best, the tannin makes sturdy the structure of the wine, dark and sultry flavors of blackberry, dried purple fruit, plum, spice and earth, chewy, round and pleasant, really nice with steak

expressive cherry and mushroom on the nose, polished, engaging, seems to take a modern approach to this appellation, the volcanic soils make presence, the nuances of cherry skins, leather, saline and lava rock all make an appearance, altogether is an Etna experience at the price point, it is a great wine, have it with some pizza

Tightly wound but unravels with air, scents of wild raspberry and violets, clean cut, pure and energetic, refined, silky texture, there are some complex nuances of tea leaves, dried plum, raspberry and spices, a slight bitter element actually gives a refreshing edge and overall it is a wonderful wine with cellar potential

Aroma of spice, peppers and new books, soft edges and smooth entry, picks up some nuances on the finish, flavor profile of chocolate, cherries, baking spice and cigar, easy drinking with a pleasant personality, medium weight and acid, gains some body with aeration, characteristic of Washington red blends in a flavorful but unstructured manner, therefore it drinks well now

I found this bottle to be tight with some mixed berry and earth on the nose, lots of tannic backbone with a brightness in acidity, flavors of cherry, tobacco and orange peel, never really opened even on the next day, still very youthful with potential to improve, hold longer
