VinoUS Media Review Rated 93 Bright magenta color. An explosively perfumed, mineral-tinged bouquet displays fresh raspberry, cherry, licorice pastille and smoked meat scents. An exotic nuance makes an appearance with air. Stains the palate with sappy, appealingly sweet red/blue fruit, spicecake and candied rose flavors that show impressive clarity and back-end cut. Silky, slow-building tannins add subtle grip to the finish, which hangs on with superb, floral- and game-driven tenacity. I really like the blend of Old and New World qualities here. (Josh Raynolds)
shows an enticing nose of mineral, incense, spice box, balsamic, black and blue fruits with a greater depth and volume, and is a plush, layered, opulent package. Give this promising effort 2-3 years to fill out and drink it through 2024.
