There’s a feeling that this wants to let loose but just can’t right now. It’s too young, too tight. There’s a regional expression of mulberries, leafy freshness and blueberries with wafts of warm earth and grainy tannins. It’s a good wine but its best days are ahead of it, so come back to this in a couple of years.
