Nose
World with noticeable minerality, tight linear structure, and exotic aromas of crushed rose petals, graphite, and roasted coffee.
Palate
Its modern styling elicits a silky, textural richness that encompasses its structural core with layers of cranberry, black cherry, and black currant. Flinty gunpowder minerality and notes of Earl Gray tea usher a long finish with hints of tangy Ponzu sauce and Asian Five Spice. The tensional balance of richness against vibrancy is something we strive for in all our wines, and it is persistent here.
Aging
Aged 16 months in 40% new French oak
