WineSaint
Taut and mineral-driven, with cranberry and dried herbs showing a distinctly savory character. The palate feels lean and focused, though somewhat pinched by firm tannins that need softening. Good underlying energy, but the wine's austerity currently overshadows its fruit. Requires cellaring to find its balance.
