Showing pretty, with bright sour cherry stripe, some nice floral aromatics. This is for drinking now; Don’t anticipate that this has the core to guide it for long term aging. A bit exaggerated but friendly; quite charming for the money.

Solid for the vintage. A little less body than in years past, but otherwise, quite good, with medium acids, mostly resolved tannins, nice plum and dark red berry fruit. Tree bark, soil, stones, flower perfumes - more earth than fruit just now, I like it. Adequate lift and complexity, this is one to enjoy in its youth. Good purity, structure, vintage notwithstanding. Drink now thru 2022. 14,0% abv. recommended
