Vinification
Named after the phase that translates into 'in the blink of an eye', the 2020 Oogwink comes with a compressed frame of red florals before red spices and black peppercorn mingle with hints of cured sausages. Medium to full-bodied, the palate displays fine-grained tannins with elegance of precision, offering up notes of peppercorn with dusty cherry, flavors before somersaulting to a wonderfully spiced and delightful finish.
"It's fantastic now, but I have no doubt it will be an elegant stunner once it has matured a few years longer in the bottle." - Anthony Mueller
