This vintage delivers a palpable vibrancy within its lean frame like a well-trained long-distance runner. Its movements are smooth and efficient with a perceived power bristling just under the calm surface. A wild, dark berry array overlays a fresh-baked, brambleberry pie essence that provides an important glimpse into its brooding, layered nature. Dried herbs, a touch of star anise and fresh crumbled earth give a solid foundation to the nuanced fruit. With time in the glass, the wine gently opens up revealing its true prowess which is highlighted by a bright acidity. This wine seems to stride effortlessly as its muscled definition constantly works to support its potential.
