Friday, March 24, 2023 - Ruby red with youthful purplish tinge, clear, transparent. Extremely clean, very expressive and pronounced nose of Turkish Delight, apricot nectar, abundance of white pepper. Palate is extremely clean, tart and lean acidity, white pepper, apricot nectar and kernel, redcurrant and cranberry. On the lighter side of medium-bodied, verging on austere for this wine. Some slightly stalky tannins but they will subdue with time. Much lighter than other vintages, so will this age as well? Maybe. Regardless, it is delicious drinking, albeit at a significant price.
