Deeply colored, exhibiting a panoply of aromas and flavors, including jasmine, honeysuckle, dried apricot, dried orange peel, smoke, mineral and mushroom, with hints of clove and myrrh. This is set on a solid framework, with vibrant acidity to balance the richness, offering more with each sip. The long finish alternates between the pretty floral and fruit notes and hints of smoky forest floor. Drink now through 2029.
