“Reductive notes reminiscent of leather, mushroom, and damp pavement mingle with sweet, juicy red-berry fruit and savory and baking spices. Chiseled tannins tighten up the plush fruit. There's tangy, crunchy freshness, silky texture and a mineral streak. Oodles of crowd appeal and a sense of place to boot.”
