Score 86+/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous
Bright, saturated ruby-red. Sexy aromas of raspberry, minerals, cardamom and pepper. Tightly wound, with the combination of elevated acidity and firm minerality giving the wine a distinctly hard edge. Finishes with rather tough, somewhat dry tannins. This very unevolved wine may yet come into harmony with bottle aging, but I wouldn't bet on it.
