Seductive nose of cherry, tar, raspberry, plum, rosemary, and crushed rose petals. Silky on the palate despite the firm ripe tannins. There is a decent whack of warm alcohol, but everything is so beautifully integrated. Long, sweet finish. Gorgeous now but more to come.

Relatively tight and unyielding at first. begins to crack open, showing a hint of tart cherry and ironstone. With more air there are florals and the fruit intensifies at the wine's core and sweetens up. It is well-balanced and intense, finishing with bright acidity and some tannic chew. Very good but too young.

Agree with the other notes. I'd add that it's quite full, round, juicy, just bordering on jammy in the mid-palate. I'd like to give it more time.

no notes taken but remembered as a beautiful light yet complex and deep wine with great potential in 5-8 years.
92-93p.
