Amazing nose. Mid to late season very ripe cherries, cranberry bog, white chocolate, and some citrus rind. Gorgeous. Spice and violets as well. Palate is rich and tense at the same time with gorgeous sweet cherry fruit and unreal purity and freshness. Super silky and sweet with great acidity and mineral sweet cherry finish. Now with air there is gorgeous blackberry and black raspberry. Unreal red cherries and spice. Really lifted nose. Palate is much redder than the nose lets on and has really engaging minerality. So pure and well made. Almost a 9.5.

Jul 8th, 2024Barrel sample. Gorgeous nose. Ripe and deep. Blueberry. Raspberry and black cherry. Floral. Violets and so aromatic and deep. Honeyed. So complex and hedonistic. So pure and so stunning. Complex and fresh. Startling purity and fruit. Some new wood but well integrated. Silky. sweet and decadent but also lifted and bright. Long and engaging finish. Salty even? Brilliant wine and value. Terrific inner mouth aromas. Long. Just a stunning wine. Maybe a 9.6.
