Lovely aromas of dried rose petal, sandalwood, dusty earth, red berries, baking spice. On the palate the wine is fine grained, with crunchy red fruits, earthy spice tones, agar wood, hints of star anise. The tannins are fine but give nice grip to the palate elevation this wine above just a charming easy drinker into a bottle that has great food pairing options, and definite potential to see some positive development with a few years in the cellar. Fantastic length on that palate and the fruit, spice and earth all vie for the final word. A beautiful and classical expression of this rarified Ribbon Ridge terroir for a price point that is practically unheard of. Once again, this beauty from Norris is set to be a big hit here at K&L!
