Complete description
Vintage Description:
The 2016 has an attractive bouquet of cranberry, wild strawberry, cedar and light loamy aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, though it is well balanced with a fresh, quite mineral-driven finish that has grace and charm. (Neal Martin - Vinous, January 2020)wine:
