Ferguson 2020

- 94 points -

The 2020 Red Wine Estate Ferguson Vineyard is impossible to ignore, opening with a dusty bouquet that blends shavings of cedar and savory spices with mentholated herbs and hints of dried black cherries. This is elegant and lifted, with a radiant core of crisp red and blue fruit that flows beneath an air of violet florals. It leaves chalky tannins and a whisper of mentholated herbs, tapering off structured yet still quite fresh, with a lingering tinge of licorice.
