Nose

The initially austere nose becomes more expressive the longer the wine is open. Decanting will pay dividends. Savory aromatics evoke dried bay and rosemary.

Palate

These herbal notes are richly integrated with wild black elderberry fruit and palate smacking acidity. These complex impressions are highlight by a bone dry structure of vivid tannins.

Aging

Aged 18 months in twice used French oak.

Food Pairing

Pair with a hearty risotto.
