The 2022 GSM is an expressive wine with a lively ruby hue, edged with hints of garnet. The aromatics are layered with bright red fruit—cranberry, red plum, and strawberry—accented by citrus zest and a high note of candied red fruit. Subtle undertones of herbal tea, dried herbs, black pepper, and ginger add intrigue, while a touch of earthiness evokes the scent of a forest after rainfall.
On the palate, this blend is both fruit-driven and savory, balancing juicy red berry flavors with hints of spiced plum and red tea. The tannins are elegant and fine-grained, providing structure without overwhelming the wine’s natural vibrancy. A bright acidity keeps everything fresh and lifted, leading to a long, satisfying finish where red fruit and subtle spice linger beautifully. Approachable now yet built to age.
