Allen Meadows - Score: 92 (43252)

A still somewhat restrained nose features notes of fresh red berries, plum, spice and violets. The medium weight plus flavors possess a sleek and relatively precise mouth feel before terminating in long, balanced and delicious finish where a touch of minerality adds lift. This nicely crafted effort is already drinking reasonably well though I would be inclined to allow it a few more years of cellar time first. With that said, it is certainly enjoyable now.
