This wine carries aromas of evergreen and cassis on the nose—a dead ringer for Cabernet Sauvignon. The tannins are suave and subtle, providing a lightly drying but generously long finish. There is excellent tension here, and the overall impression is sophisticated and integrated. The lifting acidity floats gracefully through the finish, making it a terrific wine for food pairing. Delightful to drink now, there is no rush to enjoy this thanks to the marked intensity. Drink now–2024.
