2018 noir — 93 pts from PDWR

The nose is deeply con­cen­trat­ed pur­ple and blue fruits with sweet notes of blos­som and cedar. The palate entry offers sup­ple and sticky black fruits, spice box with a well-bal­anced core of robust plum, min­er­al, and pol­ished sweet cher­ry lozenge. Plen­ty to like here. 93 pts
