94 Points: “Strong aromas of black cherry paste and clove are made more elegant with smashed wet slate minerality on the nose of this wine. The palate is complex, with big and
bright red fruits, white pepper and tarragon playing off of the earthy structure” – Matt Kettmann, Wine Enthusiast (May 2019)
93 Points: “Deep vivid red. A complex, expressive bouquet evokes ripe red berries, cherry preserves and mocha, and bright mineral and spice topnotes lend vivacious character. Stains the palate with appealingly sweet black raspberry and cherry
vanilla flavors supported by a spine of juicy acidity. Shows excellent definition and floral lift on the impressively long, supple, cherry-tinged finish, which is given shape by sneaky, well-knit tannins. Drinking window: 2022 - 2029” – Josh Raynolds, Vinous (August 2019)
91 Points: “Bright and juicy, with savory richness to the mineral-infused plum tart and dried cherry flavors. Pastry accents show midpalate, with slate and spice details lingering on the fresh, crunchy finish. Drink now through 2023. 292 cases made.” – Kim Marcus, Wine
Spectator (November 2019)
