This needs 12-24 hours before it really gets there. But it is a stunning wine. Chestnut, roses, melting road tar, floral like crazy, rock and soil tones and so much more and very nuanced. Concentrated and velvety with terrific purity and sappiness. Amazing length but only showing 15% of itself. Such purity but people need patience. Insanely complex wine but my score will go up after this airs out.

Pours that mahogany soy caramel color I love so much.

Smells sticky sweet - muted cherries and a wool blanket, dried strawberry slices & white roses sitting pretty in their brown black potting soil.

Nose : sweet pink rose juice. So gorgeous

Palate: sweet perfect cherry. A hint of cranberry.

Finish is liquid joy. Wow. So good.
