The deep red raspberries boast of a crisp black raspberry edge: silky, seductive Morello cherries with a darker middle that reminds one of Hanck on the nose with the same ripe, ripe fruit, with none of the bloodiness. It is all perfume, class, chalky minerality. The mouth has a very mineral attack, and where is the volume of this wine coming from? Delivering grand cru-like weight while clocking in at a mere 12.5% alcohol, and this, from (let’s be honest) a still-globally unknown terroir. The intensity of the chalk-laden raspberry fruit over the hard-candy concentration is a marvel to behold. The finish is long, subtle, deft and, above all, a Burgundian-style red fruit tone that precedes the darker, regal finale. Just lovely: this should live at least a decade and a half.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eA word from Mary: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eRich mid-palate and lovely long finish.
