Dark ruby at its core, the 2018 Uriah starts firm and dusty in the glass with a rocky essence and elements of blackberry skin, black plum and hints of oak and spice before notions of baked earth sway on the nose. Medium to full-bodied, the wine offers a firm tannic edge that will loosen with time in the bottle. It offers succulent flavors of dark red cherry and spiced plum and a delicate mineral tension. The wine concludes with a firm, mineral-laced finish and will remain food-friendly until its 15th birthday.
