Perfect acidity, it is well knitted/balanced with excellent length and a beautiful, elegant finish that lasts 90-120 seconds.

My previous comments are still spot on. Absolutely incredible wine. Mouthfeel, nose, primary ripe blue and black fruit, secondary graphite, lavender, wet stone…balanced tannins and acidity…just drinking so good. Perfect with my grilled steak tonight. — 8 days ago
