Deep garnet with a slight purple undertone, seductive notes of red plums, red cherries, ripe blackberries laced with red roses and mushrooms. A plethora of juicy red fruits highlighted by the brightest acidity and supple tannins yield an assertive, complex, elegant experience on the palate with decadent flavors and a vibrant, lingering finish.
Wine Enthusiast Review (Cellar Selection):
Tempting black cherry and savory, woodsy flavors blend beautifully in this vivid, well-balanced and complex wine. A just-firm texture shows mild tannins and a crisp cranberry flavor that highlights the cherry, rosemary and mushroom notes. Aged in 40% new French barrels, it should be best from 2025. -J.G.
