Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Mar 17
Palish red. Lovely lift to the aromas of raspberry, cranberry, spices and dried rose. Juicy and penetrating but edge-free, with its red berry flavors complicated by spice and salty mineral notes and lifted by a minty nuance. Finishes with fine-grained tannins, lovely length and a light touch. Not particularly fleshy or sweet but this wine shows more energy than a sample I tasted in late 2015 just after it was bottled.
