Seriously Old Dirt 2017 displays a brilliant, deep garnet-red color. Ultimately fruit-forward, this potent blend reveals ample, vibrant red cherry and ripe blueberry on the nose. Its fruit purity is underpinned by wel- coming woodsy notes of allspice, toasty coconut and sandalwood, deftly mingling with nuanced sweet tobacco. The palate is broad, notably fresh and generous. Juicy red fruits and a sumptuous mouthfeel integrate a core of fine, chewy tannins. A long, satisfying finish, supported by a nougatine-chocolate character, adds a luxurious dimension to this fine wine. Delightful now and will mature gracefully.
