Top Notes For

9.1

Nicely done. Initially reserved nose gets more boisterous with air, and shows sappy raspberry ooze and kirsch, with some underlying stony minerals. Rich, ripe, dense fruit is buoyed nicely with acidity, it’s full bodied and the dark stoney finish has a bit of tannin. It likely will be better in a year or two.

Light weight, good fruit. Lacks depth and length. Good typicity.
