On the nose, cherries, poached strawberries, soft minerals, fresh red roses and loamy soils. On the palate, creamy but leaner; raspberries, dark cherries, cherries, spiced plum, beautifully soft volcanic minerals, loamy soils, cinnamon, clove and nice soft spice. Finishes with bright strawberries, good chalkiness and acidity. Photos of their tasting bar and another angle of their sweeping vistas.
