• Wine Access Tasting Note

  Deep, dense, and a turbid garnet in color. Bold on the nose with aromas of currants, dried loganberry, exotic spices, cardamom, dried violets, graphite, clove, and developing complexity of mature tobacco, damp earth, and licorice. The palate shows a youthful delineation that belies its age, with just a touch of softening to the tightly-packed but super-fine tannins. Full-bodied, and boasting flavors of black cherry, sandalwood, earth, and Asian spices. Beautiful now, but structured to continue its slow evolution over the next 8-10 years. Drink now - 2029.
