WineSaint

Mint, dried roses and cigar box open to reveal red currants and balsamic depth. The 52-day maceration shows in the wine's silky yet firm structure, where bright acidity lifts mineral-laced fruit against polished tannins. A saline, earthy finish trails tobacco and forest floor. Built for decades of cellaring.
