Tasting Notes

A deep-set nose, brooding almost; this has beef stock, high quality dark chocolate and cocoa powder notes, opening to reveal a wealth of ripe and bright summer berries, dark plums and a granite-like layer. This has impressive aromatic depth. The palate instantly captures with fine layered tannins that coat the mouth, flavors of chocolate coated black cherry, pepper, kirsch and plum liqueur roll playfully through; this is so complex, so entrancing and masterfully executed. Great wine. Best from 2022.
