Scores are for the vintages we carry. Ranges are barrel-sample scores given before bottling.
Tasting Notes
Deep purple. Mint and dark berries, cherry, plum, licorice and graphite over the estate's signature mineral earthiness. Concentrated and layered, with powdery tannins and a long, penetrating finish. Built for the cellar; decant when young.
Food Pairing
Beef tenderloin, roast lamb, duck, venison.
Serve at 17 to 18°C (63 to 65°F). Decant young vintages for an hour.
