Description
The 2022 Stratastone shines with almost equal parts G-S-M, offering an aromatic and inviting bouquet laced with blood orange, tea leaf, and whole-cluster-driven spice. The medium-weight palate is juicy and supple, with savory layers of cranberry, crushed rock, green olive, peppercorn, and a kiss of oak spice. Tea-like tannins and a sophisticated cut of acidity carry oak-infused mineral notes through to the finish.
