Natural Cork

Despite the challenges of the vintage, this Merlot, at 23 years of bottle age, is downright extraordinary. It is super compact and ultra delicious, with exotic notes of apricot, violets, loamy earth, tobacco, and truffle nuances. Radiant notes of scorched earth, graphite, and chalky minerality mingle with plum fruit laced with spearmint and sage, and the finish is long, enticing, and impressively fresh. Tasted in early 2026.
