Fragrant, medium-high to highly aromatic nose. Attractive ripe red cherry, strawberry, rose floral, underbrush, herbs & savoury earth aromas w/ touches of stony mineral & citrus. Medium-full to full-bodied palate is dry w/ very good structure & lovely dried red cherry, rose floral, savoury scorched earth, mineral, sweet spice flavours + tangy orange adding complexity. Very good, structured acidity, while youthful, structured & chalky tannins are integrating nicely. Well-balanced w/ red cherry, floral notes + savoury earth & minerals on long, crisp finish w/ excellent length. Tasted Sept. 2024.
