torrefaction

long and quite expressive already

silky and fine

Cabernet Sauvignon dominates this wine with 90%

This is a relatively refined Nuits 1er that is built-to-age yet not especially austere and thus should drink well after only 5 to 7 years of age

Rose & Arrow, The Black Walnut other_regions_australia torrefactionShimmering red. Powerful black raspberry, cherry liqueur and potpourri scents, along with hints of incense and exotic spices. Fleshy and concentrated but strikingly lively as well, offering palate staining red blue fruit, floral pastille and spicecake flavors that are sharpened by a spicy white pepper flourish. Finishes bright, floral and extremely long, with resonating spiciness, fully integrated tannins and a lingering cherry note. Josh Raynolds
