    March 29, 2023 - A very pretty transparent light cherry color. It had me on the pour, beautifully fragrant strawberry, black raspberry and pomegranate fruit on the nose backed by a peppery, volcanic minerality. Barely medium bodied (13.5%), lovely balance across the palate yielding to well integrated peppery tannins on the dark stony finish, with plenty of backing acidity. Outstanding with a simple red sauce pasta with turkey meatballs (sorry for the sacrilege.) Potential to deepen a bit with a few more years in bottle. Shall I compare thee to a Santenay?
