A little patience is required with this new release, but it’ll be well worth the wait, as is often the case with a Bob Lindquist creation. I loved the 2013, and this vintage shows equal promise, with racy acidity pushing bright cherry, white pepper and dried herbs that, though muted at present, lay poised to spring to life with additional bottle aging or a long decant.
