IMPRESSION
This beautiful wine is soft and suptuous, and multilayered with Rainer cherries and stewed pluot, nuanced with vanillin French oak, black licorice, muddled strawberries, tobacco and orange flower. Velvety soft tannins with a cramy mid-palate that build to a medium+ finish. We estimate this wine will cellar gracefully beyond 2027.
