Tasting Notes

Appearance: Deep, inky purple with vibrant ruby highlights, hinting at the wine's intensity and concentration.

Nose: The bouquet is bold and expressive, featuring a core of ripe red and black cherry compote, intertwined with aromatic notes of applewood smoke, savory herbs, and anise. As the wine opens, subtle hints of graphite and iron emerge, adding layers of complexity to the aromatic profile.

Palate: On the palate, this Hermitage is powerful and structured, with a bracing energy that carries the fruit-forward flavors of cherries and dark berries. A racy spine of graphite provides tension and balance, while underlying mineral and iron notes contribute depth and character. The wine's fine-grained tannins offer structure, yet remain elegant and well-integrated, leading to a long, lingering finish that is both savory and fruit-laden.

Finish: The finish is exceptionally long, with a persistent twang of iron and minerals that lingers amid the rich fruit, leaving a lasting impression of complexity and finesse.
