Inky ruby. Powerful, mineral- and spice-driven aromas of ripe black/blue fruits, candied violet and licorice. Densely packed and focused on the palate, offering bitter cherry, blueberry and dark chocolate flavors that unfold slowly with air and show sharp delineation. The blue fruit and floral notes drive a long, gently chewy finish framed by dusty, slow-building tannins.

Score 90/100 · Drink 2020-2025, Erin Brooks, Wine Advocate, Oct 2020
The rustically styled 2018 Tannat has a medium to deep ruby-purple color and scents of tar, loam, coffee beans, aniseed and blue and black berry fruits. The palate is medium to full-bodied with bright, earth-tinged flavors in a chewy but fresh frame, and it finishes long. 1,250 cases produced.
