95 AM.
A floral, spicy and brilliantly layered nose offers up wonderfully fine gradations of red pinot fruit, violet, lavender and rose petal plus warm earth aromas that complement to perfection the rich, full and powerful flavors that are generous yet precise on the tautly muscled, intense, linear and pure finish that explodes on the palate. The sense of vibrancy is almost palpable and this is wonderfully harmonious, in fact the word Zen comes to mind. This should be great in time. Allen Meadows, Jan 01, 2011 |
