« Lovely nose with dark cherries, boysenberries and stemmy herbs with a hint of dark earth and white pepper. Quite a narrow delivery with medium to full body and fine tannins. Lively and tense on the mid-palate, showing crunchy blueberries and a flavorful finish. From organically grown grapes. Already approachable now, but can hold.» -Zekun Shuai, senior editor
