Product Overview
92 Points - Wine Spectator
"Spicy, juicy and fragrant, with jammy huckleberry and blackberry flavors at the core, alongside aromatic details of chai tea, dried oregano and toasted cumin details on the long, complex finish. Tannins are dense but polished and velvety on the finish. Drink now through 2040. 200 cases imported." -MW, 12/31/21

"Inky ruby. Deep-pitched dark fruit and licorice aromas are sharpened by a spicy suggestion of cracked pepper. Weighty cassis and cherry preserve flavors show fine definition and an appealing jamminess. Finishes round and smooth, with well-knit tannins lending gentle grip." -JR, Sep/2022

"While currently quite austere and tightly wound, Tolmer also shows what feels like a little volatile acidity. In this case it adds, rather than detracts, by adding lift and complexity to the broody aromas of cassis, black cherry, mint and spice. The palate is framed by drying, dusty tannins that cinch the plump fruit and earthy spice. Give this time or a decanter and plenty of protein. Drink now–2029." -CP, 10/1/22
