Glistening ruby. Smoke- and spice-accented red and blue fruit scents are complemented by suggestions of allspice, candied rose and cola. Alluringly sweet and energetic on the palate, offering cherry preserve, black raspberry and spicecake flavors that deepen through the back half with no loss of vivacity. Fine-grained tannins frame an impressively long finish that features resonating floral and mineral notes. 20% whole clusters; 24% new French oak.

From clone 777 planted on Blocks 1 and 2. Dark garnet. Fragrant and quite intense on the nose. Dark berries – mulberries? Rather luscious with crisp acidity and less obvious tannin than the 2019 Plow. Clearly made to age though, despite being more transparent than the 2019. A savoury note that keeps the whole thing extremely refreshing. Long. (JR)
