Bright, clear ruby with hints of purple. Medium minus viscosity. Red fruits dominate (cherry and raspberry) very fresh and juicy, but also slightly rustic with a brambly character. Wet forest floor, wet river rocks, dusty spices and mild black pepper add complexity. Aromas confirmed on the palate especially the pepper on the moderately long finish. Structurally, the wine is medium minus body, medium alcohol, dry, medium verging on medium plus acidity, medium minus velvety tannins. This is a high quality wine that would age well for at least the next five years from this tasting.

The wine is singing now: Playful wine--floral notes, but also wild strawberry and a vivid raciness and some salinity. And check out the history of this 130+ year-old vineyard. An unusual gem.
