Dark cherries and their dehydrated counterparts form the wine’s core, joined by dark plums and gentle flickers of blueberry that lift the profile. Crushed petals, Campari and herbal tea thread through dried leaves and woodsy spice, creating an earthy, autumnal tone that draws you in. A hint of orange peel and a trace of porcini lend an umami depth and complexity that reward patience. The longer it sits, the more it reveals. Grippy, dusty tannins extend with calm precision, drying slowly and leaving a composed, confident finish. There is quiet intrigue here, supported by poise and structure. Nicely done.
