93 Points

Tuesday, May 7, 2024 - This pours medium ruby in the glass. Aromatically lovely on opening but boy is this singing after 24 hours of air. Aromatics are intense and complex showing dark pomegranate, juicy dark cherry, cinnamon, musky animal fur, peonies, rose petals, white pepper, botanicals, and leather. The palate is also wonderful entering on dark pomegranate. Tannin is medium minus with medium plus acid. The finish closes harmoniously on leather, smoke, and pomegranite molasses. Medium plus in length. All in all this is just a wonderful wine that keeps improving. Bumping it up one point and I'm not sure it's done. Absolutely love the fresh and vibrant fruit, structure, drinkability, and complexity of this wine. Wish I had more, but now down to three bottles. Stylistically I think this is somewhere between Northern Rhone Syrah and cool climate Caliornia Pinot Noir.
