Tasting Notes

Tasting notes
FINE+RARE

Wild blackberry and blueberry mingle on the nose along with more sauvage notes of forest floor, crushed leaves, smoke and black peppercorn. Addition of 5% Viognier contributes faint iris and violet. Electric on the palate, the mouthfeel is lean, focused and fresh with more red fruit note of cranberry and raspberry, as well as savory notes of charcuterie and olive tapenade. The overall feel of the wine is so elegant, with highly concentrated dark aromatics balanced by incredible freshness and lift on the palate. Drinking very well now, this wine will easily age 5-7+ years in order to unveil even more savory characteristics.
