Tasting Notes
Beautifully pure notions of dark plum and crushed blackberry come with smooth evocations of vanilla, cinnamon and cedar on the nose. There even is a glint of nutmeg. The palate is translucent and just as aromatic as the nose, it is especially that nutmeg and vanilla tone accentuating really pure, ripe and concentrated fruit. Tannins are silky and smooth, show their firmness only on the finish, while lovely freshness lends great balance. A wine made to be elegant rather than powerful, bravo.
