Tasting Notes
Intensely aromatic with black cherry, cassis, and red plum. As it opens: layers of violet, bell pepper, graphite, cedar, tobacco, and earthy forest floor, complemented by sweet spices like cinnamon and clove. Also: fresh Rainier cherries, strawberries, herbs, pink peppercorn, rose petals, and vanilla.
Color Deep ruby color with purple hues, showcasing youth and vitality.
Palate Full-bodied with harmonious balance of acidity and tannins. Ripe dark fruits: blackcurrant, blackberry, and plum. Mid-palate complexity: green peppercorn, dried herbs, and distinctive minerality from calcareous soils. Montpensier oak adds nuances of vanilla, toast, and light spicy notes enhancing texture. As it moves across the tongue: cassis, herbs de Provence, and fresh ground espresso. Long and refined finish — dark chocolate, black tea, and smokiness. Silky yet structured tannins with excellent aging potential.
