- Palate: Silky, supple, and finely structured. The palate shows a lovely mineral precision, with beautifully integrated, fine tannins leading to a long, fresh finish.
Pairing & Serving Tips
This is a versatile red that shines when served slightly cool (around 55°F).

- Cellaring: Enjoy now for its vibrant fruit, or cellar for 5-7 years for added complexity.
