Aromas of blackberries, graphite, and lead pencil. Fresh and dried flowers and iron shavings. Full bodied, layered, tight and solid. Beautiful and very poised and thoughtful. Hints of fresh herbs, from lavender to lemon grass. Compressed. Great length and focus.
...delicate, elegant and super-refined. Bright floral and spice notes perk up a core of red cherry and plum fruit in a fine, silky wine that speaks to pure refinement. A wine of total grace and finesse, Cappella is absolutely gorgeous in 2016.
Dark and very reserved up front, with an espresso cream frame holding a dense core of steeped fig and black currant paste flavors... Slowly reveals roasted alder and smoldering tobacco notes at the end while the fruit gains steam, driving the finish.
...powerful bouquet of blackcurrants, caramelized meats, spice box, and chocolaty herbs...full-bodied, deep, concentrated 2016 just glides over the palate with no sensation of weight or heaviness.
...boasts gentle cedar and vanilla notes overlaid on cinnamon-dusted cherries. It's full-bodied, warm, rich and dense—even a bit fudge-like—on the palate, but there's also a sense of zesty brightness on the lingering finish to provide a sense of balance.
