Juicy and ripe on the attack, showing an appealingly silky texture and flavors of dried fig and spices. Damson plum and a hint of bitter chocolate linger on a cool, minerally finish. There is a sense of tension and energy found here that is rarely found in any wine, let alone one at this price point.
