94 Points

Thursday, July 14, 2022 - Prior bottle was 18 months ago and the wine is showing beautifully. Black and red cherry along with earth and mineral notes on the nose. Between medium and full bodied with both red and black cherry upfront, adding some darker plum and some brighter blackberry through the middle. The mid-body is spectacular with the red/black cherry combining with the plum/blackberry and supported by the acidity, tannins and tart notes on the back to create a wine of harmony, depth and elegance. The mid-body feels silky, yet deep and able to express a lot of nuance while being tied almost seamlessly to the structural notes and finishing qualities behind. Balance has clearly improved from some of my early bottles! I'll plan to open my next bottle in June/July 2023.
