Enticing aromas of black cherries, blackberries, licorice, cloves, green chilis and dark chocolate. It’s full-bodied with fine-grained tannins. Beautifully deep, fleshy and inky, with excellent freshness, too. Spicy and attention-grabbing. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold.
Tight and closed, with notions of bloody blue fruits, iodine, rose petals, and cedarwood, the 2020 Impulsivo hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, a nicely balanced, layered mouthfeel, and ripe tannins that emerge on the finish. I like its concentration, and its tannins are polished and beautifully integrated, but this is in need of a solid 4-5 years of bottle age to show its full potential. It should have 20-25 years of overall longevity when all is said and done
Aromas of dark raspberries, pine needles, fresh-turned soil and a wet pumice stone fill the air with each glass swirl. Black cherry and pipe-tobacco flavors dominate the smoothtextured palate, with additional notes of spearmint and orange zest. A meaty note on the finish suggests turkey burgers with a cranberry sauce
