Stately and emphatic, the 2020 Rim Rock leads with a focused nose of violets, lavender, sage, spice, incense, and wild blackberries. The palate underscores the wine's focus with concentration and a gratifying combination of fruit purity and elegant tannins. Like past vintages of Rim Rock, the very detailed nose and sense of poise and energy characterizes the wine, but the 2020 vintage offers more concentration and a generous texture on the palate at an earlier stage.
