Ancestor 2021
$88.00 / 750 ml
The 2021 Ancestor exudes aromas of blackberry, blueberry, mineral, and slate, with a touch of chocolate. The entry is round and soft, bursting with flavors of blue and black fruits, cassis, and cocoa. The mid-palate transitions into a long, textured finish, layered with baking spices and soft, yet present tannins.
