Tasting Notes

Moderate reduction dominates the nose to the point where the fruit is masked. There is good freshness and energy though to the strongly mineral-inflected and beautifully well-detailed medium-weight plus flavors that are presently austere and quite right on the otherwise impressively long finish. This old school and very serious effort is quite firm though stops short of overt rusticity.
