  Ripe, spicy, a bit confected on the nose. Spicy with polished tannins, just enough acidity. Nice length. 87-89

  Nose: It took a little bit to get going, but, the nose is pure and feminine with violets, rose petals, strawberries, fresh picked red fruits, herbs, tart red cherries, and a touch of licorice.
  
  Taste: Medium bodied with medium/high acidity and youthful, but silky tannins. The feminity of the nose carries through on the palate with a satin-like quality backed up by rose petals, strawberries, red cherries, and lots of herbs.
  
  Overall: This is extremely pretty even right now. It has a lot of freshness to it, but with an inviting quality as well. This can only get better and it has a great head start.
