This wine starts off with bold aromas of blueberry and açaí. Oak-derived flavors of toast and milk chocolate surface on the ripe, lush and powerful palate. Talcum powder-like tannins are backed by bustling acidic tension. However, the structure is discreet and integrated rather than overbearing. The medium finish shows touches of spice and smoky lapsang souchong tea. Drink now–2021.
