Tasting Notes

**Note: from a tiny .18 ha parcel**
A positively kaleidoscopic explosion of aromas with a heady scope of spice and various red, blue and black fruit characters precedes the cool, pure and lacy middle weight flavors that possess superb detail and incredible finesse on the understated yet hugely persistent finish. This is one very classy effort and as good as the Malconsorts is, this is simply at another level. This isn't an especially big or powerful effort but it is so beautifully focused that it comes across as very Zen. An exceptionally impressive effort.
