Tasting Notes

This is the first wine to reveal any appreciable wood influence and here it includes menthol and toast though it's not so prominent as to overshadow the red currant, lavender, Asian-style tea and rose petal scents. As is always the case there is more size, weight and power to the more mineral-driven flavors that exhibit superb intensity that builds from the mid-palate before culminating in a wonderfully persistent finish. This is perhaps not quite as imposingly-scaled as it usually is but I very much like the balance. Again, at least some patience advised.
