Tuesday, September 13, 2022 - Much better than my last bottle, which in hindsight was perhaps suffering from travel shock. Definitely fruit-forward, but oh so sexy that even my hardened old-world soul is melted by this wine's charm. The nose is reminiscent of a St. Julien, with cassis, brambly black raspberry and a bit of mineral, along with a dollop of vanilla oak. The palate shows more red fruit (cherry, pomegranate) and a touch of heat, but overall this is nicely balanced, finishing with silky tannins.
