Thursday, January 5, 2017 - Dusty black fruited nose with brine and olive notes. Brisk, bright acids sit at the forefront of the palate, giving lift to the otherwise dark and brooding fruit tones: blackberry, blueberry, currant. The structure seems to be coming entirely from the acids, it shows tense at the moment. Some smokey notes are coaxed out with air. Dusty, blue-toned finish that ends on a very “syrah” note before submerging into a lithe “rainwater” outro.
