  • Complete description

    Vintage Description:

    The 2016 is wild and exotic in the glass, with a spicy burst of citrus and hints of graphite that give way to crushed blackberries and incense. This is a juicy and vibrant interpretation of the wine, with a wave of mineral-tinged wild berry fruit that washes across the palate, guided by stimulating acidity. (Eric Guido - Vinous, December 2023)
