2018 vintage. Spicy and a tad weedy (not the 4/20 variety) nose. Light-medium body but plenty of punch. Abusive Luxardo cherry in the flavors alongside cola nut, raspberry and rhubarb. Biggy tannins but mostly front-loaded vs back end. Needs a good 2 hour decant to air out. Tremendous hollers for the dollars. Almost a Pinot/Burgundy-styled bod. Almost. So much zip and personality. Super fresh and super presh. Love this producer. 3.31.24.
