“Attractive notes of raspberries, orange peel, red licorice, cedar and dried mushrooms. Medium- to full bodied with firm tannins that have a chalky texture to them. The vivid acidity and underlining notes of juicy red berries give it joy and vibrancy. Mineral finish.” ~94pts James Suckling (June 2023)
