Lush and creamy in texture, with flavors of raspberry puree, dried cherry, star anise, and violet gliding across the palate. Well-honed, succulent acidity keeps this fresh and focused, while a minerally underpinning of stone and smoke emerges to drive the lightly chewy finish. Drink now through 2029. —A.N.
What We Thought: A big, brambly, black fruit nose leads to an intense, full-bodied palate of very ripe black cherry fruit, some licorice and herbal notes, light food-friendly acids, and very supple tannins.
