Tasting Notes
The 2019 RLC immediately jumps out of the glass with classic aromatics of red and blue fruits, violets, and floral incense. Full-bodied richness and supple elegant tannins are layered with cocoa nibs, sandalwood, and juicy dark fruit that make this a great wine to drink right now, though it can easily age in the cellar for a decade or more.
