Tasting Notes
2020 Estate Grown Tannat: Beginning with big aromatics of black currants, plum and dark cherry, the nose then leads into the more savory components of this varietal - anise, mushroom, tobacco and cedar. The palate is full of life and complex. Upon the first sip the wine expands on the palate with a great full-bodied weight and a predominant texture from beefy, yet soft, tannins. The wine finishes ultra-sexy and complex. Built for the cellar, but drinks amazing in it's youth.
