Tasting note

Simply compelling from start to finish, exhibiting raspberry, cherry and floral aromas and flavors that are pure and focused, with support from the solid yet ripe tannins. This shows fruit and a silky texture up front, with structure on the back end, coming together on the long, fruit- and spice-tinged aftertaste. Best from 2015 through 2032. Score - 95.
