Insane notes of blackcurrant and blueberry fruits, truffle, gravelly minerality, forest floor, and exotic flowers... Full-bodied, thrillingly textured, seamless, and with incredible intensity...this is a perfect, legendary wine from this awesome winemaker and vineyard.
The clarity and transparency are superb...with blackberries, blackcurrants, and floral aromas, which follow through to a full body. Lush and plush velvety tannins unfold to a refined and almost powdery texture.
...smells awesome, with notes of charcoal, camphor, incense, graphite, blackberry, cassis and possibly some floral undertones. Unctuously textured, thick and juicy, with an energized mouthfeel...
...total stunner. Deep, sumptuous and beautifully layered...vivid, super-expressive... Blueberry jam, lavender, spice and leather infuse the racy, open-knit finish in this spectacular wine...
Richly layered, with warmed fig, boysenberry compote and blueberry reduction flavors, all allied to substantial but very creamy and polished tannins. This is infused liberally with espresso-accented toast, letting a light alder hint show on the finish.
