The best bottle I’ve had in a long, long time. First sip was probably the most stunning taste in years. Incredible full and ripe red fruits but with juicy fresh acidity. Secondary notes blew off after a minute of decanting. Like ripe raspberries with orange peel acidity. An under current of savory minerality ties it all together. A perfect wine. Mind blowing.
