  • Complete description

    Vintage Description:

    The nose is primarily savory, with notes of cured meat, topsoil and graphite, but undertones of sour cherries and tart berries provide some buzz. The ebb and flow of earthiness and astringency continues on the palate, while insistent tannins and lively acidity provide structure for that interplay. (D. Callegari - Wine Enthusiast, 12/2023)
