Pressed rose, wild berry, leather and a balsamic note of camphor lead the nose along with a whiff of hazelnut.
It has a juicy concentration for the vintage, doling out juicy cherry extract, black raspberry and licorice, while tightly wound tannins provide the backbone.
Fresh acidity brightens the rich flavors. Drink 2024–2034. – Kerin O’Keefe
