Fragrant and loaded with energy and finesse, this has enticing scents of perfumed berries, star anise, wild herbs and violet. The linear, structured palate is focused and intense, delivering succulent red cherry, orange zest, crushed mint and licorice before a saline mineral close. A backbone of firm, refined tannins and tangy acidity provide support. Drink 2025–2032. Kerin O’Keefe
