Beautiful fresh, bright fruit with cherry and ripe-strawberry character, as well as hints of spices. It’s medium-to full-bodied with firm, silky tannins and a pretty finish. So delicious to drink now

The flinty promise of slight reduction is the first notion on the nose of this wine, followed by a bright, juicy red-cherry tone. The palate also has that appetizing flintiness surrounding ripe, almost fleshy cherry that sits around a core of freshness. Subtle, juicy tannins appear on the appealing finish.

Infused with aromas and flavors of black cherry, blackberry, wet loam and sweet spices, this red gives way to a foundation of dense tannins. Shows balance and persistence, so give this a year or two to settle down. Best from 2026 through 2035. 2,250 cases made, 900 cases imported.
