Dark cherry and herbs flow with elegant restraint across the palate. Whole-cluster spice weaves through concentrated fruit, while graphite and forest floor notes add compelling complexity. The finish shows excellent grip and mineral drive. Drinking beautifully now but will evolve gracefully through the decade.
