Tasting Notes
The aromatic profile is shy yet powerful, driven by ultra ripe dark fruits of blackberry, mulberry and boysenberry. Slightly more nuanced are forestial and savoury aromas of dried Ponderosa pine needle and guanciale. Lavender petal and violet add refinement to this rustic bouquet.
Concentrated and lush, this wine flows seamlessly from its immediate dark berry freshness to its persistent juniper and fruit leather finish. Vibrancy and youth are equaled by evolution and balance. A good balance of acid & tannin suggest a wine to be enjoyed now but developing for years to come.
