WineSaint
Wild cherry and white pepper build with mineral-driven intensity. The palate shows surprising concentration despite the vintage's restraint, with dark fruit and smoky volcanic notes flowing through a structured, almost austere frame. Firm tannins grip the finish, suggesting this needs patience to reveal its full potential. Drink 2025-2030.
