Allen Meadows - Score: 93-96 (2022 January)

Once again, the nose of ripe red and dark pinot fruit, earth, spice and a whiff of truffle is exuberantly fresh. The almost painfully intense middle weight flavors exude an almost aggressive minerality on the focused, chiseled and youthfully austere finale that exhibits superb length. This is a combination of finesse and flavor authority that is quite firmly structured and should age effortlessly. Wonderful.
