The 2023 Nord reveals an opulent bouquet of red and blue fruits-dark cherry, blueberry, and ripe plum-interwoven with delicate violet florals. Earthy tones and leaf litter add complexity, while subtle bunchy spice and a hint of background toast frame the wine with depth and elegance. On the palate, the wine is rich and deeply fruited, showcasing dark berries and cherries alongside a delicate citrus lift. The tannins are plush and rounded, offering a soft structure, while the bright acidity sits seamlessly within the fruit, enhancing the wine's balance and vibrancy. The finish is long, pure, and finely etched, with the wine maintaining its poise and composure from start to finish.
