Tuesday, May 3, 2016 - Medium-dark rosewood color with faint signs of bricking at the corona. This has a pretty nose of violet, with tertiary aromas of ash and pine starting to emerge. The palate starts with a sharp fruity flavor, like biting into a crisp red apple, before transitioning at midpalate to more herbaceous flavors. This finishes with a dry minerality and the persistent flavor of blackcurrants. The overall impression is of a wine which is poised and possesses strong character, without ever becoming heavy or overbearing. Well balanced between fruit and acidic structure, this is entering a prime drinking window and should be enjoyable for the next 5 years.
