An explosive nose of cherry, rhubarb and spice announces the pleasure about to happen on the palate once this gorgeous wine is sipped. Racy acidity carries full-throttle flavors that are true to type, with a focus on the interplay between fruit and spice. The finish blossoms broad and long with great integration. Beautifully made! A Platinum Award Winner at the 2018 Monterey International Wine Competition.
