The wine spent 22 months in 90% new French barrels. It’s garnet red in the glass. It has a nose of pyrazine, mint and red fruit over secondary aromas from the aging process which provide a well-judged frame.

The grippy flow is well-balanced and relaxed with a flavorful backdrop and ends with a lively, and lengthy, finish.
