Overview

The 2020 is rich and beautifully focused from top to bottom. Deep, vibrant red fruits and baking spices aromas inform the palate that is supple, serious, and wonderfully fresh. This will pair better with light or heartier dishes and although charming now, it will continue to improve over several years.

Aging

The wine was aged in French Oak barrels (25% new oak) for 11 months where it gained complexity and elegance.
