June 20, 2020 - Similar to last note.
This is bright and accessible, and certainly in a good place. But i doubt it has the material to get much better.
No rush at all — but don’t get your expectations up for significant development. -

August 5, 2019 - Med ruby. Aroma dominated by strong herbal notes, especially pepper, baking spices and lavender, with an undercurrent of tart red fruit.
Punchy, bright acid sets the tone for a lovely palette with mild+ tannins and additional notes of earth, cranberry, and tart cherries.
This is really quite lovely and clearly has more in store. -

High acidity and long finish.
Nose: plum and blackberry.
Palate: red cherry, sweet spice, notes of earth and well-balanced minerality.
