TASTING NOTES
Shaly soils add minerality and perfume to the wine, with a natural elegance of structure. The cooler growing regions bring abundance of bright red fruit to the equation, as well as a velvety tannin structure.The overriding impression is youthfulness and vibrancy, which bodes well for the ageing potential of the wine.
Aromas of blueberries to the floral burst of raspberry, cranberry, and mulberry. The vivid fruit profile is accompanied by a perfume of violet and lavender. The oak contributes toasty wisps, almond nougat, dark chocolate shavings, and a subtle mace. The 50% new oak is well-integrated owing to the extended maturation period. The entry on the palate is round and elegant, with good tannin structure and an abundance of fruit on the palate.
