BUY THE WINE

Light pink color with a narrow band of clarity on the rim. Some musty bottle stink initially, and after it diminished, pink grapefruit and hints of mint and pine-resin scents emerged. While there were remnants of some light, off-dry cherry-fruit nuance, there was also a skosh of wintergreen throughout, and gentle poached prune flavor in the background hinting at the fact that the fruit is starting to fade. The finish was generous, delicate, smooth, and warm, with excellent longevity. | 89
