Blind Assessment

Deeply sweet-savory, complex, resonant. Blackberry, plum, cocoa powder, molasses, gardenia in aroma and cup. Gentle, winey acidity; round, viscous mouthfeel. The finish is long and lush, with cocoa and fruit sweetness persisting into a soft floral note.

Bottom Line

A lush, multilayered Costa Rica SL28 natural — richly fruit-toned and velvety, with depth and refinement throughout the profile.
