Top Notes For

8.9

Light brick color; delicate nose of dried and ripe red cherries, strawberries, and currant, and some anise, ceder, intense floral notes, and a ”watery” minerality; very fine tannins and medium alcohol and acid levels, more elegant than powerful, fruit- and spice-driven palate-coating taste with long finish. This wine is well made and correct but rather unexceptional.
