Spending 20 months in 80% new French oak, with another year in barrel gives this wine a distinct complexity. Palate-grabbing tannins demonstrate power and muscle. Graphite, blackberry skins, and black cherry ganache create a grainy mouthfeel. Minerality goes deep, fielding savory notes of soy sauce, black coffee, and walnut, and finishing with powdered violets.
