2021 Saxum, Heart Stone Vineyard, Central Coast 1x750ml

Vinous 97

The 2021 Heart Stone Vineyard is an understated beauty, lifting from the glass with a burst of crushed rocks, wilted violets and citrus-laced blackberries. Cool-toned and racy in style, it sweeps across the palate with zesty wild berry fruits, complicated by a twist of tangerine and an air of sage. It leaves the palate drenched in primary concentration and crisp tannins, while a bump of residual acidity leaves the mouth watering for more. There s gorgeous harmony here, which should promote a long and steady evolution. [Eric Guido, 25/07/2024]
