Allen Meadows - Score: 92-94 (2019 Jan.)

Here too there is a beautiful range of spice elements adding interest to the cool, pure and airy aromas of cassis, dark raspberry, lavender, violet and rose petal. Once again the mouthfeel of the middle weight flavors is super-sleek, indeed the word satiny comes to mind. I very much like the sense of underlying energy along with the almost pungent minerality that emerges on the impeccably well-balanced and sneaky long finish. This is Zen-like.
