"Rose petals, wild strawberries, red tea, licorice and hints of cinnamon stick on the nose. Peach skins, pink peppercorns and negroni, too. It,s vibrant and pure with beautiful pink fruit, accompanied by tight, sleek tannins. So elegant, silky and fresh. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold."

"Spirited yet brooding and tightly focused, this red offers a narrow beam of blackberry, bacon fat, black olive and stony mineral flavors that build toward firm tannins. Drink now through 2032."
